IN THE UNITED ST ATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

NORTHERN DIVISION 

EDDIE GIBBS 

v. No. 3:20-cv-123-DPM-PSH 

GLENN, Jailer, Greene County Jail; 

FORD, Jailer, Greene County Jail; and 

JAMES, Jailer, Greene County Jail 

ORDER 

PLAINTIFF 

DEFENDANTS 

On de nova review, the Court adopts the partial recommendation, 

Doc. 6, as modified. FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b)(3). The modification: the 

amended complaint-in a sentence partly cut off in copying-states 

that "Ford jumped into the beating[.]" Doc. 4 at 5. The Court therefore 

concludes that Gibbs has stated an excessive force claim against Ford 

as well. The Magistrate Judge will order service on him in due course. 

The Court overrules Gibbs' s remaining objections, Doc. 7. If Gibbs 

wants to plead more facts or try to show that all his claims are related, 

then he must get permission to amend his complaint. But he can't 

amend his complaint by way of his objections or by just filing an 

amended complaint. His excessive force claims against Glenn, James, 

and Ford go forward. All other claims are dismissed without prejudice.
