IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

WESTERN DIVISION 

DEMITRI MONTEL PETTY 

v. No. 4:19-cv-395-DPM-BD 

RUSTY PAGE, Sergeant, Faulkner County 

Sheriff Office; and COLE MARCUM, 

Officer, Faulkner County Sherriff Office 

ORDER 

PLAINTIFF 

DEFENDANTS 

On de novo review, the Court adopts Magistrate Judge Deere's 

partial recommendation, Ng 4, and overrules Petty's objections, NQ 7. 

FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b)(3). Petty says that Page and Marcum abused a 

County policy when they allegedly violated his rights. But he hasn't 

alleged that the policy itself was unconstitutional or that it was the 

"moving force" behind his injury. Burlison v. Springfield Public Schools, 

708 F.3d 1034, 1041 (8th Cir. 2013). Petty's official-capacity claims 

therefore fail and are dismissed without prejudice. 

So Ordered.
