AUGUSTA STATE MEDICAL PRISON DENTAL DEPARTMENT; MR. CONLEY, Warden; MR. SHEPHARD, Warden; and MR. BROWN, Warden, Defendants.
Plaintiff, an inmate at Hays State Prison in Trion, Georgia, is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis (“IFP”) in this civil rights case. Because he is proceeding IFP, Plaintiff's pleadings must be screened to protect potential defendants. Phillips v. Mashburn, 746 F.2d 782, 785 (11th Cir. 1984); Al-Amin v. Donald, 165 Fed.Appx. 733, 736 (11th Cir. 2006). The Court affords a liberal construction to a pro se litigant's pleadings, holding them to a more lenient standard than those drafted by an attorney, Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 94 (2007), but the Court may dismiss the complaint or any portion thereof if it is frivolous, malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, or if it seeks monetary relief from a defendant who is immune to such relief. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2)(B) and 1915A(b).
On February 2, 2018, the Court screened Plaintiff's original complaint, but because of pleading deficiencies, could not determine whether Plaintiff had any viable claims. (See doc. no. 14.) The Court gave Plaintiff an opportunity to attempt to cure those pleading deficiencies by allowing him fourteen days to file an amended complaint. (See id.) That amended complaint, signed February 7, 2018, is now before the Court. Not only did Plaintiff fail to address the previously identified pleading deficiencies, but after a review of Plaintiff's prior history of case filings, the Court REPORTS and RECOMMENDS this action be DISMISSED without prejudice.
Here, Plaintiff identified only one other lawsuit he filed based on the same or different facts as those in the instant complaint. (Id. at 9-10.) The Court is aware of at least six other cases Plaintiff filed in federal court prior to signing his amended complaint on February 7, 2018, two of which appear to have some factual similarity to the instant case in that they relate to a jaw injury and/or the treatment Plaintiff has received for it. See Bradley v. Wendy, 4:17-CV-0297 (N.D.Ga. Dec. 27, 2017); Bradley v. Gilbert, 4:17-CV-0298 (N.D.Ga. Dec. 27, 2017). At least one other case relates to his conditions of imprisonment, Bradley v. Lucas, 4:18-CV-0006 (N.D.Ga. Jan. 10, 2018). Plaintiff's other three cases relate to alleged civil rights violations regarding the manner in which his conviction was obtained and the manner in which his divorce proceedings were conducted. See Bradley v. Boswell, 4:18-CV-0008 (N.D.Ga. Jan. 10, 2018); Bradley v. Boswell, 4:18-CV-0007 (N.D.Ga. Jan. 10, 2018); Bradley v. Marx, 3:17-CV-3317 (N.D. Tex. Dec. 5, 2017).
Rivera, 144 F.3d at 731; see also Sears v. Haas, 509 Fed.Appx. 935, 936 (11th Cir. 2013) (affirming dismissal of complaint where prisoner plaintiff failed to accurately disclose previous litigation); Redmon v. Lake Cty. Sheriff's Office, 414 Fed.Appx. 221, 223, 226 (11th Cir. 2011) (affirming dismissal, after directing service of process, of amended complaint raising claims that included denial of proper medical care and cruel and unusual punishment for placement in a “restraint chair” and thirty-seven days of solitary confinement upon discovering prisoner plaintiff failed to disclose one prior federal lawsuit); Young v. Sec'y Fla. Dep't of Corr., 380 Fed.Appx. 939, 940-41 (11th Cir. 2010) (affirming dismissal of third amended complaint based on a plaintiff's failure to disclose prior cases on the court's complaint form); Alexander v. Salvador, No. 5:12cv15, 2012 WL 1538368 (N.D. Fla. Mar. 21, 2012) (dismissing case alleging deliberate indifference to serious medical needs where plaintiff failed to disclose new case commenced in interim between filing original complaint and second amended complaint), adopted by, Alexander v. Salvador, No. 5:12cv15, 2012 WL 1538336 (N.D. Fla. May 2, 2012).
