All claims against Defendants Lightner, Matthews and Fran k are time-barred as are the claims against Defendants Smith and Cramer which accrued in July 2006. All claims against Defendant Haywood are either time-barred or fail to state a claim because Haywood's role in denying grievances is insufficien t to render him reliable. It is granted as to all claims that allege the mere filing of false misconduct report(s) violated Plaintiff's Eighth Amendment and/or Fourteenth Amendment procedural or substantive due process rights and such claims ar e dismissed with prejudice but is denied insofar as Plaintiff alleges that the filing of false misconducts was done in retaliation for Plaintiff's exercise of his rights, which would violate his First Amendmdent rights. It is granted as to Defe ndant Folino whose only alleged wrongdoing in the complaint is his role in the grievance proceedings and Defendant Folino will be dismissed as a party defendant without prejudice.
