Dkt. No. 46

INTRODUCTION

Plaintiff, an inmate at R. J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego, California, filed 

this pro se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s 

motion to withdraw the amended complaint’s claims against defendants Drs. Dunlap, Bright, and 

Adams. Docket No. 46.1 The Court GRANTS Plaintiff’s motion. The claims in the amended 

complaint against Drs. Dunlap, Bright, and Adams are DISMISSED. Drs. Dunlap, Bright, and 

Adams are DISMISSED from this action. 

This action will proceed on the remaining cognizable claim in this action: Plaintiff’s claim

that Drs. Birdsong and Mack violated his Fourteenth Amendment right to receive sufficient 

information to intelligently exercise his right to refuse unwanted medical treatment. The parties 

shall continue to follow the briefing schedule set forth in the Court’s December 15, 2016 Order 

Screening the Amended Complaint.

 

1 On December 15, 2016, the Court screened Plaintiff’s amended complaint and found that 

Plaintiff’s amended complaint stated a cognizable claim that Drs. Birdsong and Mack violated 

Plaintiff’s right under the Fourteenth Amendment to receive sufficient information to intelligently 

exercise his right to refuse unwanted medical treatment. Docket No. 45 at 3. The Court noted that 

Plaintiff’s claims against Drs. Dunlap, Bright, and Adams suffered from certain deficiencies, and 

granted Plaintiff leave to amend these claims to address the specified deficiencies. Id. at 3‒4.
