Date Filed Document Text
February 27, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 56 ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The Court ADOPTS in its entirety the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 48 ). The Court finds that Magistrate Judge Williams's recommendations are sound, particularly in light of the detailed analy sis of exhaustion as to the lack of documentation from the Plaintiff tending to suggest that he lodged this specific grievance with the Administrative Review Board on an emergency basis, or at the institutional level. As Magistrate Judge Williams no ted, there is evidence that Plaintiff reliably used the grievance system on many other occasions, so it was not credible that there was a complete lack of documentation of the grievance process for the issues raised in this case. Plaintiff's ow n verbal representations were also contradicted by the sworn testimony of a prison grievance counselor. Based on these issues, the Defendants' motion is hereby GRANTED. No claims remain against any party. Accordingly, judgment shall be entered in favor of all Defendants and the Clerk's office is directed to close this case. Signed by Chief Judge Michael J. Reagan on 2/27/2019. (rah)
