KEONTIS M. WALKER, Correctional 

Officer, Varner Unit, ADC 

ORDER 

PLAINTIFF 

DEFENDANT 

1. On de nova review, the Court partly adopts and partly declines 

the 6 November 2018 partial recommendation, NQ 32, and partly 

sustains Hampton's objection, NQ 35. FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b)(3). 

Hampton says that although he's now housed at another ADC unit, 

Walker has been transferred to that same unit. NQ 35 at 1. The Court 

therefore declines without prejudice the recommendation on 

Hampton's official capacity claims for prospective injunctive and 

declaratory relief. The recommendation is adopted as to any official 

capacity claims against Walker for damages. Those are dismissed 

with prejudice. The motion to dismiss, NQ 21, is partly granted and 

partly denied without prejudice. 

2. The unopposed 7 November 2018 partial recommendation, 

NQ 33, is adopted. FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b) (1983 addition to advisory 

committee notes). Hampton's motion for summary judgment, NQ 26, 

is denied.

and any remaining pretrial deadlines. The Court returns this case to
