Medcalf v. Evans

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.
