Filing 13
ORDER DISMISSING ACTION AND DIRECTING ENGRY OF FINAL JUDGMENT - Plaintiff Michale Coleman, who is confined at the Bartholomew County Jail, alleges in this lawsuit that Bartholomew County Sheriff Matthew Myers has violated his rights under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Person Act by allowing only Christian worship in the Jail and holding events for Christian inmates offering pizza, snacks, and soft drinks to Christians. These claims are the same claims alleged in Coleman v. Myers, 1:22-cv-1912-JMS-TAB. This civil action is identical in all material respects to Coleman v. Myers, 1:22-cv-1912-JMS-TAB. There is no reason for duplicative lawsuits which drain scarce judicial resources. Accordingly, this action is dismissed without prejudice. All pending motions are denied and judgment consistent with this Order shall now issue. (See Order). Copies sent pursuant to distribution list. Signed by Judge Tanya Walton Pratt on 10/21/2022.(AKH)
