IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

WESTERN DIVISION

DEXTER HARMON, ADC # 152483 PLAINTIFF

VS. 4:16CV00325-BRW

LESLIE RUTLEDGE, Attorney General, 

State of Arkansas; et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

I have reviewed the Proposed Findings and Recommended Disposition submitted by

United States Magistrate Judge Joe J. Volpe and Plaintiff’s objections. After carefully

considering the objections and making a de novo review of the record, I approve and adopt the

Proposed Findings and Recommended Disposition in all respects. 

Accordingly, Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (Doc. No. 20) is GRANTED. This case is

DISMISSED without prejudice for a lack of jurisdiction. Plaintiff’s Motion for Service (Doc.

No. 25) is DENIED AS MOOT.

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

Order would not be taken in good faith. 

Dismissal of this action will not count as a “strike” for purposes of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g)

given the somewhat unique and complex issues involved. 

IT IS SO ORDERED this 30th day of August, 2016.

/s/ Billy Roy Wilson 

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
