IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

HOT SPRINGS DIVISION

WILLIAM G. MEDCALF PLAINTIFF

v. Case No. 6:24-cv-06120

TRAVIS EVANS DEFENDANT

ORDER

Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation filed November 25, 2024, by the 

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

(ECF No. 10). Judge Ford recommends that the case be dismissed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 

1915A(b)(1) for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. 

Plaintiff has not responded and the time to do so has passed. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). 

Upon review, finding no clear error on the face of the record and that Judge Ford’s reasoning is 

sound, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 10) in toto. Accordingly, 

Plaintiff’s Complaint (ECF No. 2) is hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. Plaintiff 

is warned that, in the future, this dismissal may be counted as a strike for purposes of 28 U.S.C. § 

1915(b)(1), and thus the Clerk is directed to place a § 1915(g) strike flag on the case for future 

judicial consideration.

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 14th day of January, 2025.
