CHRISTOPHER R. COOPER, United States District Judge
Proceeding pro se, plaintiff Alvin Wiggins filed suit against the Postmaster General, Megan Brennan, in D.C. small claims court, alleging that the U.S. Post Office failed to deliver a letter that contained ten $100 bills.1 The government removed the *276case to federal court under 28 U.S.C. § 1442(a)(1), which permits removal of suits against federal officers. It then filed a motion to dismiss the case in lieu of an answer, arguing that Mr. Wiggins failed to exhaust his administrative remedies. The Court will grant the government's motion.
