RECOMMENDATIONS, DISMISSING CLAIM

AGAINST DEFENDANT MIMS AND

INJUNCTIVE RELIEF CLAIM, AND

REFERRING MATTER BACK TO

(Docs. 8 and 10)

Plaintiff Jason Deaver, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this

civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on October 17, 2011. The matter was referred to a

United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

On November 7, 2012, the Magistrate Judge screened Plaintiff’s amended complaint and

recommended that this action proceed on Plaintiff’s claim against Defendant Narayan for denial of

adequate medical care. 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Plaintiff filed a statement of non-opposition on 1

December 13, 2012. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), the Court has conducted a de novo

review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the Court finds the findings and

recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.
