Filing 43 OPINION and Order: During his incarceration in Illinois and Missouri jails, Plaintiff Scott Meherg was hospitalized twice after receiving medication to treat his high blood pressure. He now brings this 1983 suit against Defendants Paul Skrivan, Akinrinola Fatoki, and Charles Pewitt, alleging they acted with deliberate indifference to his medical needs in violation of the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments. Fatoki and Pewitt move to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction and Skrivan moves to dismiss for failure to state a claim. Because Meherg has not alleged facts sufficient for the Court to exercise personal jurisdiction over Fatoki and Pewitt, the Court severs his claims against Fatoki and Pewitt and transfers them to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. Because Meherg has pleaded sufficient facts to state a claim of deliberate indifference as to Skrivan, he may proceed with that claim in this Court. Signed by the Honorable Sara L. Ellis on 1/22/2020. Mailed notice. (kp, ) |
