OPINION

Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff Louis E.

Miles, Jr., filed this lawsuit asserting claims of

excessive force pursuant to an arrest, false arrest,

unconstitutional conditions of confinement, and

inadequate medical care. This lawsuit is now before the

court on the recommendation of the United States

Magistrate Judge that defendants W. B. Dickey and M.

McCord’s motion for summary judgment be granted in part

and denied in part, with the result (1) that summary

judgment should be entered in favor of Dickey on all

claims except the excessive-force claim against him in

his individual capacity and (2) that summary judgment

should be entered in favor of McCord in full. Also

before the court are Miles’s objections to the

recommendation. After an independent and de novo review

of the record, the court concludes that Miles’s

objections should be overruled and the magistrate

judge’s recommendation adopted.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

 DONE, this the 26th day of August, 2010.
