IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

CENTRAL DIVISION 

TERRY LAMAR MCCOY PLAINTIFF 

 

VS. 4:20CV00450-BRW-JJV 

JOSEPH GORMAN, et al. DEFENDANTS 

ORDER 

I have reviewed the Proposed Findings and Recommended Disposition (Doc. No. 12) 

submitted by United States Magistrate Judge Joe J. Volpe. After carefully considering Mr. 

McCoy’s timely filed objections and making a de novo review of the record, I approve and adopt 

the Proposed Findings and Recommended Disposition all respects.   

I note that Mr. McCoy’s objections were to the first recommended disposition (which 

was withdrawn) and not the second. However, both recommended dispositions advised Mr. 

McCoy that the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department is not subject to suit. He did not dispute 

this finding in his objections. 

Accordingly, Plaintiff’s claims against the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department are 

dismissed without prejudice and the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department is dismissed from 

this case. 

 I certify, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that an in forma pauperis appeal from any 

Order adopting these recommendations would not be taken in good faith. 

 IT IS SO ORDERED, this 28th day of May, 2020.
