MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER GRANTING THE GOVERNMENT’S MOTION TO DISMISS

BRADEN, Judge.

I. RELEVANT FACTUAL BACKGROUND.

Ronald Gene Kenyon currently is imprisoned at the Federal Corrections Institute (“Fci”) jn Marianna, Florida. Am. Compl. at 1. On January 12, 2004, Mr. Kenyon was convicted of three counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child under the age of twelve and two counts of abusive sexual contact in the United States District Court for South Dakota. See United States v, Kenyon, No. 3:03-30071, Dkt. No. 66 (D.S.D. July 16, 2007) (Judgment and Commitment of Mr. Kenyon). On February 11, 2006, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit reversed the judgment and remanded the ease for new trial. See Kenyon v. United States, 397 F.3d 1071, 1082 (8th Cir.2005) (holding that the trial court improperly admitted hearsay testimony).

On February 2, 2006, the United States District Court for South Dakota retried Mr. Kenyon who was convicted of four counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child. See United States v. Kenyon, No. 3:03-30071, Dkt. No. 133 (D.S.D. July 16, 2007) (Judgment and Commitment of Mr. Kenyon). On April 9, 2007, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit again reversed. See United States v. Kenyon, 481 F.3d 1054, 1058 (8th Cir.2007) (reversing two counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child, because of an erroneous jury instruction and insufficient evidence). On July 16, 2007, Mr. Kenyon was sentenced to two 293-month concurrent terms for the two counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a child that the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit affirmed. See United States v. Kenyon, No. 3:03-30071, Dkt. No. 156 (D.S.D. July 16, 2007) (Second Amended Judgment of Mr, Kenyon).

II. PROCEDURAL HISTORY.

On February 8, 2016, Mr. Kenyon (“Plaintiff’) filed a Complaint against the United States (the “Government”) in the United States Court of Federal Claims, alleging wrongful imprisonment, as well as violations of the United States Constitution and the “bad men” clause of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868 (“Compl.”).

On that same day, Mr. Kenyon filed a Notice Of Directly Related Cases: Fourstar v. United States, 122 Fed.Cl. 596 (2015); Jones v. United States, 122 Fed.Cl. 543 (2015); Peters v. United States, No. 15-528C, Dkt. No. 20 (Fed. Cl. Nov. 10, 2015) (Memorandum Opinion And Final Order); Ballard v. United States, No. 15-799C, 2016 WL 1057023 (Fed.Cl. Mar. 16, 2016); Little Coyote v. United States, No, 15-723C, 2016 WL 1057023 (Fed.Cl. Mar. 16, 2016); and Harrison v. United States, No. 15-1271C, 2016 WL 3606066 (Fed.Cl. June 30, 2016).

Mr. Kenyon also filed, a Motion For Leave To Proceed In Forma Pauperis that the court granted on February 24,2016.

On April 8, 2016, the Government filed a Motion To Dismiss the February 8, 2016 Complaint, pursuant to Rules 12(b)(1) and 12(b)(6) of the United States Court of Federal Claims (“RCFC”).

On May 5, 2016, Mr. Kenyon filed a Motion To Stay, a Motion For Extension Of Time, and a Motion To Amend Complaint, attaching an Amended Complaint (“Am. Compl.”). On May 26, 2016, the court granted Mr. Kenyon’s May 5, 2016 Motion To Amend Complaint, but denied Mr. Kenyon’s other May 5, 2016 Motions as moot.

The May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint names the United States as a defendant, and states two claims. Am. Compl. at 1-3. The first claim alleges that “defendants,” the Acting Director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons (“FBP”), an Assistant United States Attorney, a Mental Health Doctor at FCI Marianna, Florida, a Senior Judge of the United States District Court for South Dakota, and unnamed officers, acting as agents of the United States, allegedly unreasonably and retroactively applied: 42 U.S.C. § 16913(a);.18 U.S.C. § 3583(d); Federal Bureau of Prisons (“FBP”) Program Statement 5110.17; and FBP Program Statement 5394.01. By applying these statutes and policies, “defendants” violated Mr. Kenyon’s rights, pursuant to the “bad men” clause of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, as well as the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution. Am. Compl. at 2. In addition, for the first claim, the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint seeks: injunctive and declaratory relief enjoining the United States from enforcing the above referenced statutes and policies with respect to Mr. Kenyon; $26 million in damages for wrongful imprisonment; and his immediate release from the FCI. Am. Compl. at 2.

The second claim alleges that the Acting Director of the FBP, a Federal Bureau of Investigation Indian Case Agent, a Bureau of Indian Affairs Superintendent, and a .Senior Judge for the United States District Court of South Dakota, allegedly unreasonably applied: 18 U.S.C. § 1153(a); 18 U.S.C. § 2241(c); 18 U.S.C. § 2244(a)(1); and 18 U.S.C. § 2246(2)(D)-(3), thereby violating Mr. Kenyon’s rights under the “bad men” clause of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868. Am. Compl. at 2-3.

The second claim also alleges that Mr. Kenyon was wrongfully imprisoned, because “defendants” threatened to withhold federal contracting programs under the Indian Self-Determination & Education Assistance Act (“ISDEAA”). Am. Compl. at 2-3. In addition, Mr. Kenyon seeks injunctive and declaratory relief enjoining the United States from enforcing the above referenced statutes with respect to Mr. Kenyon, and $25 million in damages for wrongful imprisonment. Am. Compl. at 3. Mr. Kenyon also requests ex-pungement of his “charges, DNA, fingerprints, data and all other legal instruments particular to [him].” Am. Compl. at 2-3.

On June 8, 2016, the Government filed a Motion To Dismiss the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint (“Gov’t Mot.”), pursuant to RCFC 12(b)(1) and 12(b)(6). On July 7, 2016, Mr. Kenyon filed a Response (“PI. Resp.”).

III. DISCUSSION.

A. Standard Of Review For Pro Se Litigants.

A pro se plaintiffs pleadings are held to a less stringent standard than those of litigants represented by counsel. See Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519, 520, 92 S.Ct. 594, 30 L.Ed.2d 652 (1972) (holding that pro se complaints, “however inartfully pleaded,” are held to “less stringent standards than formal pleadings drafted by lawyers”). It has been the tradition of this court to examine the record “to see if [a pro se] plaintiff has' a cause of action somewhere displayed.” Ruderer v. United States, 412 F.2d 1285, 1292 (Ct.Cl.1969).

B. Standard Of Review For A Motion To Dismiss Pursuant To RCFC 12(b)(1).

A challenge to the United States Court of Federal Claims’ “general power to adjudicate in specific areas of substantive law ... is properly raised by a [Rule] 12(b)(1) motion.” Palmer v. United States, 168 F.3d 1310, 1313 (Fed.Cir.1999); see also RCFC 12(b)(1) (allowing a party to assert, by motion, “lack of subject-matter jurisdiction”). When considering whether to dismiss an action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, the court is “obligated to assume all factual allegations [of the complaint] to be true and to draw all reasonable inferences in plaintiffs favor.” Henke v. United States, 60 F.3d 795, 797 (Fed.Cir.1995).

C. Standard Of Review For A Motion To Dismiss Pursuant To RCFC 12(b)(6).

Although a complaint “attacked by a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss does not need detailed factual allegations, a plaintiffs obligation to provide the .grounds of entitlement to relief requires more than labels and conclusions, and a formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action will not do.” Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007) (citations omitted). The court, however, “do[es] not require heightened fact pleading of specifics, but only enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.” Id.; see also RCFC 12(b)(6) (“Every defense, in law or fact, to a claim for relief in any pleading, whether a claim, counterclaim, or third-party claim, shall be asserted in the responsive pleading thereto if one is required, except that the following defense! ] may at the option of the pleader be made by motion: ... (6) failure to'state a claim upon which relief can be granted[.]”). When reviewing a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, the court “must accept as true all the factual allegations in the complaint, and ... indulge all reasonable inferences in favor of the non-movant.” Sommers Oil Co. v. United States, 241 F.3d 1375, 1378 (Fed.Cir.2001) (citations omitted).

D. The Government’s June 8, 2016 Motion To Dismiss.

1. The Government’s Argument.

The Government argues that the United States Court of Federal Claims does not have jurisdiction to adjudicate the claims in the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint, because Mr. Kenyon seeks review of a criminal conviction. Gov’t Mot. at 5 (citing Joshua v. United States, 17 F.3d 378, 380 (Fed.Cir.1994) (“[T]he. [United States] Court of Federal Claims does not have jurisdiction to review the decision of district courts or the clerks of district courts relating to proceedings before those courts.”)). In addition, the designated “defendants,” were acting as federal agents in their professional capacity and, as a matter of law, are immune from suit. Gov’t Mot. at 6 (citing Imbler v. Packman, 424 U.S. 409, 424, 96 S.Ct. 984, 47 L.Ed.2d 128 (1976) (holding that a state prosecuting attorney has absolute immunity from civil liability when acting within the scope of his duties)).

Even if the court had jurisdiction to review a district court’s decision, the court still would not have jurisdiction over the claims alleged in the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint, because the claims alleged state that “defendants” “knowingly and willfully and wrongfully violated [Mr. Kenyon’s] rights.” Gov’t Mot. at 6 (quoting Hernandez v. United States, 96 Fed.Cl. 195, 204 (2010) (“[T]he Tucker Act expressly excludes tort claims, including those committed by federal officials, from the jurisdiction of the United States Court of Federal Claims_There-fore, this court does not have jurisdiction to hear [plaintiffs] claims sounding in tort.”) (citations omitted)).

Assuming arguendo that the court has subject matter jurisdiction, the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, because “[the] factual allegations are frivolous on their face.” Gov’t Mot. at 6 (citing Denton v. Hernandez, 504 U.S. 25, 33, 112 S.Ct. 1728, 118 L.Ed.2d 340 (1992) (“[Factual frivolousness is appropriate when the facts alleged rise to the level of the irrational or the wholly ineredible[.]”)). The May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint is “supported by nothing more than a litany of implausible accusations.” Gov’t Mot. at 7. In addition, the claims alleged are “substantially similar to claims recently asserted by [Mr. Kenyon’s] fellow inmates[,]” that the court has rejected as “wholly irrational in law and fact.” Gov’t Mot. at 6 (citing Jones v. United States, 122 Fed.Cl. 543, 545 (2015)).

2. Plaintiffs Response.

Mr. Kenyon’s July 7, 2016 Response includes several arguments that are not relevant to this case, but concern related cases: Fourstar v. United States, 122 Fed.Cl. 596 (2015); Ballard v. United States, 15-799C, 2016 WL 1057023 (Fed.Cl. Mar. 16, 2016); and Harrison v. United States, No. 15-1271C, 2016 WL 3606066 (Fed.Cl. June 30, 2016).

Nonetheless, Mr. Kenyon responds that the sentencing guidelines are impermissi-bly vague, ambiguous, and unconstitutional. Pl. Resp. at 1 (citing United States v. Johnson, — U.S. -, 135 S.Ct. 2551, 2557, 192 L.Ed.2d 569 (2015) (holding that the “residual clause” of the armed career criminal act, 18 U.S.C. § 924(e), is unconstitutionally vague)). Mr. Kenyon also argues that the court has jurisdiction to adjudicate claims, pursuant to: Section 1153(a) of the “Indian Crimes Act of 1876”; Section 2242 of the Criminal Law and Procedure Technical Amendments Act of 1986 (“CLPTAA”); Section 1962 of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”); and the “bad men” clause of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868. PI. Resp. at 4-6.

3. The Court’s Resolution.

The United States Court of Federal Claims has jurisdiction under the Tucker Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1491, “to render judgment upon any claim against the United States founded either upon the Constitution, or any Act of Congress or any regulation of an executive department, or upon any express or implied contract with the United States, or for liquidated or unliquidated damages in cases not sounding in tort.” 28 U.S.C. § 1491(a)(1). The Tucker Act, however, is “a jurisdictional statute; it does' not create any substantive right enforceable against the United States for money damages.... [T]he Act merely confers jurisdiction upon [the United States Court of Federal Claims] whenever the substantive right exists.” United States v. Testan, 424 U.S. 392, 398, 96 S.Ct. 948, 47 L.Ed.2d 114 (1976).

Therefore, to pursue a substantive right under the Tucker Act, a plaintiff must identify and plead an independent contractual relationship, constitutional provision, federal státute, and/or executive agency regulation that provides a substantive right to money damages. See Todd v. United States, 386 F.3d 1091, 1094 (Fed.Cir.2004) (“[Jurisdiction under the Tucker Act requires the litigant to identify a substantive right for money damages against the United States separate from the Tucker Act[.]”); see also Fisher v. United States, 402 F.3d 1167, 1172 (Fed.Cir.2005) (en banc) (“The Tucker Act .., does not create a substantive cause of action; ... a plaintiff must identify a separate source of substantive law that creates the right to money damages..., [T]hat source must be ‘money-mandating.’ ”). Specifically, a plaintiff must demonstrate that the source of substantive law upon which he relies “can fairly be interpreted as mandating compensation by the Federal Government,” United States v. Mitchell, 463 U.S. 206, 216, 103 S.Ct. 2961, 77 L.Ed.2d 580 (1983) (quoting Testan, 424 U.S. at 400, 96 S.Ct. 948). And, the plaintiff “bears the burden of establishing subject matter jurisdiction by a preponderance of the evidence.” Reynolds v. Army & Air Force Exch. Serv., 846 F.2d 746, 748 (Fed.Cir.1988).

In this case, Mr. Kenyon argues that the United States Court of Federal Claims has jurisdiction to adjudicate the claims alleged in the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint, First, the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint alleges that the court has jurisdiction, pursuant to the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution. Am. Compl at 2. Second, that the court has jurisdiction, pursuant to the “bad men” clause of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868. Am. Compl. at 2-3. The May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint alleges that both claims can be characterized as claims for wrongful imprisonment. Am. Compl. at 2-3. Finally, Mr. Kenyon’s July 7, 2016 Response also argues that the court has jurisdiction, pursuant to the “Indian Crimes Act of 1876,” CLPTAA, and RICO. PI. Resp. at 4-6.

The court does not have jurisdiction to adjudicate the alleged constitutional violations, because the Fourth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments, as well as the Due Process clauses of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments are not “money-mandating.” See Trafny v. United States, 503 F.3d 1339, 1340 (Fed.Cir.2007) (“[T]he Eighth Amendment is not a ‘money-mandating’ provisionf.]”); Milas v. United States, 42 Fed.Cl. 704, 710 (1999) (“[The] Sixth Amendment[] [is] not money mandating[.]”), aff'd 217 F.3d 854 (Fed. Cir. 1999); Brown v. United States, 105 F.3d 621, 623 (Fed.Cir.1997) (“[T]he Fourth Amendment does not mandate the payment of money for its violation.”); Leblanc v. United States, 50 F.3d 1025, 1028 (Fed.Cir.1995) (holding that the Due Process Clauses of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments are not “a sufficient basis for jurisdiction[,] because they do not mandate payment by the Government”). Although the court has jurisdiction to adjudicate a Fifth Amendment Takings Clause claim, the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint does not allege unjust compensation by the Government. See Rith Energy v. United States, 247 F.3d 1355, 1365 (Fed.Cir.2001) (holding that the court has jurisdiction to adjudicate a Fifth Amendment Takings Clause claim if the plaintiff pleads unjust compensation by the Government). Accordingly, the court does not have jurisdiction to adjudicate the alleged constitutional violations in the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint.

The court does not have jurisdiction to adjudicate the alleged violations of the “bad men” clause of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, because Mr. Kenyon has not exhausted his administrative remedies by filing a claim with the United States Department of Interior. See Elk v. United States, 70 Fed.Cl. 405, 407 (2006) (“As a condition to receiving reimbursement, the [Fort Laramie] Treaty plainly requires that ‘proof [be] made to the agent and forwarded to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs at Washington City.’” (quoting Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, art. L, 15 Stat. 635)); see also Tsosie v. United States, 11 Cl.Ct. 62, 75 (1986) (holding that the United States Court of Federal Claims has jurisdiction “to review a final administrative decision” of the Department of Interior in a “bad men” reimbursement case), aff'd Tsosie v. United States, 825 F.2d 393 395 (1987).

In the alternative, the claims in the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint are for wrongful imprisonment. Am. Compl. at 1-3. The court has jurisdiction to adjudicate claims for wrongful imprisonment if Mr. Kenyon,

[a]llege[s] and prove[s] that:

(1) His conviction has been reversed or set aside on the ground that he is not guilty of the offense of which he was convicted, or on new trial or rehearing he was found not guilty of such offense, as appears from the record or certificate of the court setting aside or reversing such conviction, or that he has been pardoned upon the stated ground of innocence and unjust conviction and
(2) He did not commit any of the acts charged or his acts, deeds, or omissions in connection with such charge constituted no offense against the United States, or any State, Territory or the District of Columbia, and he did not by misconduct or neglect cause or bring about his own prosecution.

28 U.S.C. § 2513(a).

The court does not have jurisdiction to adjudicate Mr. Kenyon’s wrongful imprisonment claims, because the claims alleged do not meet the statutory requirements of Section 2513(a), ie., that Mr. Kenyon received “[a] certificate of the court setting aside or reversing such conviction,” or proof that Mr. Kenyon “has been pardoned upon the stated ground of innocence[.]” 28 U.S.C § 2513(a).

Even if the court construes Mr. Kenyon’s wrongful imprisonment claims as a request for review of the District Court of South Dakota’s criminal proceedings, the United States Court of Federal Claims “does not have jurisdiction to review the decision of district courts or the clerks of district courts relating to proceedings before those courts.” Joshua v. United States, 17 F.3d 378, 380 (Fed.Cir.1994); see also Julian v. United States, No. 15-1344C, 2016 WL 929219, at *2 (Fed.Cl. Mar. 10, 2016) (finding that the court does not have jurisdiction to review appellate court decisions).

In the July 7, 2016 Response, Mr. Kenyon argues that the court has jurisdiction to adjudicate claims, pursuant to: Section 1153(a) of the “Indian Crimes Act of 1876”; Section 2242 of CLPTAA; and Section 1962 of RICO. PI. Resp. at 4-6. Assuming the May 5, 2016 alleges claims, pursuant to the above referenced statutes, the court does not have jurisdiction, because the statutes are criminal. See Joshua, 17 F.3d at 379 (“The court has no jurisdiction to adjudicate any claims whatsoever under the federal criminal code[.]”); see also Hufford v. United States, 87 Fed.Cl. 696, 702 (2009) (same); Matthews v. United States, 72 Fed.Cl. 274, 282 (2006) (“Claims under .,. RICO are criminal claims. This court lacks jurisdiction to adjudicate criminal claims.”).

IV. CONCLUSION.

For these reasons, the Government’s June 8', 2016 Motion To Dismiss is granted. See RCFC 12(b)(1) and 12(b)(6). Accordingly, the Clerk is directed to dismiss the May 5, 2016 Amended Complaint.
