IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

HOT SPRINGS DIVISION

TANA MCCOY PLAINTIFF

v. Case No. 6:24-cv-6125

HOT SPRINGS POLICE DEPARTMENT, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Before the Court is a Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) issued by the Honorable 

Barry A. Bryant, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas. ECF No. 

6. Upon preservice screening of Plaintiff’s Complaint (ECF No. 1) pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 

1915(e)(2)(B), Judge Bryant recommends the claims against Defendants Chris Chapmond, 

Matthew Cheatham, Bill Bryant and Ron Casey be permitted to proceed, and that all other claims

against other Defendants be dismissed. No party has objected to the R&R, and the time to do so 

has passed. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). 

Upon review, finding no clear error on the face of the record and that Judge Braynt’s

reasoning is sound, the Court adopts the R&R (ECF No. 6) in toto. Accordingly, Plaintiff’s claims 

against Defendants Chris Chapmond, Matthew Cheatham, Bill Bryant and Ron Casey may 

proceed. All other claims against other Defendants are hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT 

PREJUDICE. 

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 20th day of November, 2024.
