These claims are, however, sufficient to proceed against defendants Missouri Department of Mental Health and Southeast Missouri Mental Health Center, Sexual Offender Rehabilitation and Treatment Services. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that plaintiff's claims for conspiracy and for the refusal to allow him to use his religious name (Count IV ) are legally frivolous and fail to state a claim upon which relief may be granted.
