IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

EL DORADO DIVISION

JESSIE TERRELL RADFORD PLAINTIFF

v. Civil No. 1:23-cv-01081-SOH-BAB

OFFICER LEROY MARTEN;

OFFICER JERRY MANESS; and

MS. ROSE DEFENDANTS

CONSOLIDATION ORDER

After screening pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, the Court determines this case and Radford 

v. Vann, et al., Civil No. 1:23-cv-01083-SOH-BAB should be consolidated. The claims in both 

cases arose while Plaintiff was incarcerated in the Columbia County Detention Center (“CCDC”)

in 2023 and center around the same allegations of excessive force, conditions of confinement, and 

a fire in the CCDC on June 19, 2023. Case number 1:23-cv-01083-SOH-BAB does name one 

additional defendant, however, the claims against said defendant also relates to the fire on June 

19, 2023. Judicial economy favors consolidation.

These cases are hereby consolidated for all matters at issue in the case pursuant to Rule 

42(a)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Radford v. Marten, et al., Civil No. 1:23-cv01081 shall be the lead case. All future pleadings will be filed in the lead case but shall contain 

the case numbers for both cases.

A copy of this Order shall be filed in both cases.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 27th day of September 2023.
