JEFFERY COWGILL,
ADC #145476
5:12-cv-00112-JMM-JTK
recommendations, and the timely objections received thereto, as well as a de novo review
of the record, the Court adopts them in their entirety with the exception of the
recommendations as to Plaintiff’s respondeat superior claims brought pursuant to the
Arkansas Civil Rights Act. Although Defendants failed to argue this point initially, the
Court finds that the respondeat superior claims brought pursuant to the ACRA against
Hobbs, Kelley, Lay and Griffin must be dismissed because these claims are not a basis for
liability under the ACRA. See Jones v. Huckabee, 250 S.W.3d 241 (Ark. 2007).
Defendants’ Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. No. 24) is GRANTED

in part, with respect to the § 1983 allegations against Defendants Hobbs, Kelley, Lay, and
in part, with respect to Plaintiff’s retaliation allegations;
in part, with respect to Plaintiff’s respondeat superior claims against Hobbs, Kelley, Lay and
Griffin brought pursuant to the Arkansas Civil Rights Act;
Defendants’ Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. No. 24) is DENIED,
with respect to Plaintiff’s Eighth Amendment claims against Defendants Warner, Holthoff, and
with respect to their request to sever claims.
