ORDER

Now before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 26) of the 

Honorable Mark E. Ford, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of 

Arkansas. Fourteen days have passed, and no party filed objections to the Report and 

Recommendation. 

The Court has reviewed this case and, being well and sufficiently advised, finds 

as follows: the Report and Recommendation is proper and is hereby ADOPTED IN ITS 

ENTIRETY. Accordingly, upon preservice screening, IT IS ORDERED that:

1. Plaintiff’s claims concerning State v. Aiden Jones, Case No. CKC-21-393, are

DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE because they are barred under the Heck doctrine; 

2. Plaintiff’s claims concerning Arkansas criminal cases CKC-23-72, 36CR-24-

87, and CKC-24-172 are STAYED under the Younger Abstention Doctrine; 

3. Plaintiff’s claims concerning civil case 36CV-24-33 are DISMISSED WITH 

PREJUDICE because they are frivolous, malicious, and barred by res judicata;

4. Plaintiff’s claims concerning civil cases 36CV-24-96 and 36CV-24-97 are

case. 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, in view of the above rulings, the Motion for 

Service (Doc. 11) is DENIED.
