**Court Filing Summary:**

Dipesh Singla has filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Central District of Illinois against multiple governmental agencies, the University of Chicago, and several individuals. The complaint alleges systematic failures to investigate civil rights violations, obstruction of justice, and retaliation. Singla seeks to initiate criminal proceedings and hold accountable those who allegedly protected criminals and violated his federally protected rights. The lawsuit emphasizes that it is not politically motivated but aims to address specific legal violations. The plaintiff requests expedited processing, a complete fee waiver, appointment of counsel, and protection from retaliation.

The case invokes various legal frameworks including Bivens actions for constitutional violations, challenges under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) actions, conspiracy claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1985, mandamus actions under 28 U.S.C. § 1361, whistleblower retaliation claims, and more. The plaintiff alleges violations of civil rights statutes such as Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.

Singla’s allegations extend to include negligence by federal employees, failure to investigate criminal conduct, retaliation for protected activity, deprivation of equal protection and due process under the Fourteenth Amendment, among others. The plaintiff seeks comprehensive remedies including declaratory judgments, injunctive reliefs, compensatory damages, punitive damages for willful misconduct, and appointment of special monitors to ensure agency compliance.
