OPINION: The merit review scheduled for October 1, 2012, is cancelled. The clerk is directed to notify Plaintiff's prison of the cancellation. Pursuant to its merit review of the Complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, the Court finds that Plai ntiff states the following federal constitutional claims: 1) Defendant Underwood was deliberately indifferent to a known and substantial risk of serious harm to Plaintiff from an assault by another inmate; 2) Defendants Piphen and Smith were delibera tely indifferent to Plaintiff's need for medical attention following the assault. This case proceeds solely on the claims identified in this paragraph. Any additional claims shall not be included in the case, except at the Court's discret ion on motion by a party for good cause shown or pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15. The clerk is directed to add Correctional Officer Piphen and Lieutenant Smith as Defendants. Sangamon County Jail is dismissed as a Defendant. This cause is set for further scheduling procedures under Fed. R. Civ. P. 16 on November 26, 2012, at 1:30 p.m. (or as soon as the Court can reach the case) before U. S. District Judge Sue E.
