UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

EASTERN DIVISION

OSCAR STILLEY

Reg. # 10579-062 PLAINTIFF

v. CASE NO. 2:15-CV-00163 BSM

 

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

The proposed findings and partial recommended disposition (“PRD”) submitted by

United States Magistrate Judge Beth Deere [Doc. No. 35] and plaintiff Oscar Stilley’s

objections [Doc. No. 40] have been reviewed. After de novo review of the record, the PRD

is adopted in part and rejected in part. Specifically, Stilley’s claim under the Freedom of

Information Act and his claim under the Federal Tort Claims Act arising from his

incarceration at FCI Oakdale are dismissed without prejudice because the failure to exhaust

administrative remedies does not warrant dismissal with prejudice. See Barbee v. Corr. Med.

Services, 394 F. App’x 337, 338 (8th Cir. 2010).

The rest of the PRD is adopted in its entirety. Accordingly, Stilley’s motion for partial

summary judgment [Doc. No. 29] is denied. The government’s motion to dismiss [Doc. No.

20] is granted in part and denied in part. Stilley may proceed with two of his FTCA claims: 

1) his May 15, 2013, battery claim and 2) his claim relating to the denial of prescribed

medication at FCI Forrest City. Except for the above-mentioned FOIA claim and the FTCA 

Case 2:15-cv-00163-BSM Document 42 Filed 10/03/16 Page 1 of 2
claim arising from Stilley’s incarceration at FCI Oakdale, which are dismissed without

prejudice, Stilley’s remaining claims are dismissed with prejudice, 

IT IS SO ORDERED this 3rd day of October 2016.
