Date Filed Document Text
June 26, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 7 INITIAL REVIEW ORDER. Plaintiff Matthew James Allen has filed a civil rights complaint against Officers Robert ONeill and Andrew Pfeiffer of the Hamden Police Department. The complaint alleges in principal part that the defendant officers engaged in excessive force against Allen as well as other constitutional violations. I conclude that the complaint alleges enough facts to allow the complaint to proceed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915A and to be served on the defendants. In light of the Court's grant of the motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, the Clerk of Court shall arrange service of the complaint on the defendants. This ruling is without prejudice to the right of the defendants to file a motion to dismiss to challenge the adequacy of the complaint to the extent they may believe it does not validly state a claim. It is so ordered. Signed by Judge Jeffrey A. Meyer on 6/26/2020.(Freberg, B)
