IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

EASTERN DIVISION

TYRONE ELLIS, PLAINTIFF

ADC #149250

v. Case No: 2:14-cv-00071-KGB-JJV

DANNY BURL, Warden, East

Arkansas Regional Unit; et al., DEFENDANTS

ORDER

The Court has reviewed the Proposed Findings and Recommendations 

(“Recommendations”) submitted by United States Magistrate Judge Joe J. Volpe (Dkt. No. 150)

and the various filings and objections filed by plaintiff Tyrone Ellis since Judge Volpe’s 

Recommendations were entered (Dkt. Nos. 151-162). After carefully considering the objections 

and conducting a de novo review of the record, the Court approves and adopts the 

Recommendations in their entirety as this Court’s findings in all respects. The Court denies any 

pending motions as moot.

It is therefore ordered that:

1. The Clerk of Court shall alter the docket to reflect that defendant Bishop is “Harry 

Bishop.”

2. Defendants’ motion for summary judgment is granted (Dkt. No. 133).

3. Mr. Ellis’s claims against defendants Harry Bishop and William Gay are 

dismissed with prejudice.

4. Mr. Ellis’s motion for summary judgment is denied (Dkt. No. 146).

5. Mr. Ellis’s claims against defendants John Does 1-3 are dismissed without 

prejudice due to Mr. Ellis’s failure to state a viable claim against these 

defendants.

6. The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that an in forma pauperis

appeal from this Order and the accompanying Judgment would not be taken in 

good faith.

SO ORDERED this 11th day of August, 2015.
