MERIT REVIEW ORDER entered by District Judge Sue E Myerscough on 10/27/2026. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED: 1) According to the Court's Merit Review of Plaintiff's Complaint under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1915A, Plaintiff has alleged enough facts to proceed with an Eighth Amendment deliberate indifference claim against Defendants Dr. Jonathan Ek and John Doe I for allegedly denying Plaintiff medical treatment for his kidney failure. Additional claims shall not be included in the case, except at the Court's discretion on motion by a party for good cause shown or under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15. 2) The Court sua sponte names Trent Allen, in his official capacity as the Warden of Danville, as a Defendant to facilitate the identification of Defendant John Doe I. Plaintiff may propound written discovery requests upon Defendant Allen aimed solely at identifying Defendant John Doe I. After Defendant John Doe I has been identified, Defendant Allen may move to be dismissed. Ultimately, it is Plaintiff's responsibility to identify Defendant John Doe I and file a motion to substitute his real name. The failure to do so will result in the dismissal of Defendant John Doe I without prejudice. 3) Defendants Centurion, Shawn Gibson, Trent Allen (in his individual capacity), Rebecca Riggs, Latoya Hughes, and John Does II and III are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for failure to state a claim under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) and Sec. 1915A. The Clerk is directed to TERMINATE Defendants Centurion, Gibson, Riggs, Hughes, and John Does II and III. The Court directs the Clerk to enter the standard qualified protective order under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. See full written Order.(VH)
