October 31, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 326 DECISION AND ORDER: The Court GRANTS the motions of all Defendants who seek dismissal of Plaintiff's Fourth Amendment destruction-of-property claims. Plaintiff's claims which implicate the legality of the search of his property - rather than the implementation of that search - have been dismissed pursuant to the rule in Heck v. Humphrey. Plaintiff may replead those claims if subsequent events lift the bar established by that decision. Only in that sense are the claims dismissed without prejudice. Plaintiff may not re-file those claims until the bar is removed, as noted further herein. Defendants' motions to dismiss, dkt. #s #228 , #240 , and #304 , are hereby GRANTED. Plaintiff's claims against Defendants Richard Giardino, Sandra Blodgett, Mark Geracitano, Shane Holcomb, Arthur Hyde, Richard McNally, Jami Panichi, Rensselaer County, the Rensselaer County Sheriff's Office, Jason Robelotto, William Roy, Patrick Russo, Justin Walread, William Webster, Steve Wohlleer, Derek Pyle, and Corey Film are dismissed with prejudice except for those claims which are subject to the bar in Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477 (1994). To the extent that Plaintiff moves for leave to file a Third Amended Complaint to name Thomas Lowrey as Defendant, that motion is DENIED (See Dkt. #245 ). As explained in the Court's previous decisions, Plaintiff's claims which are subject to that Heck bar may be re-plead, BUT ONLY AT SUCH TIME AS PLAINTIFF CAN DEMONSTRATE THAT HE CAN OVERCOME THAT BAR DUE TO A FAVORABLE DETERMINATION FROM SOME OTHER COURT, as noted further herein. The #298 Motion of Defendants Dale Gero, Steve Jones, Michelle Mason, Robert Patterson, William Scott, and John Stec to set aside default and permit filing of an answer, is hereby GRANTED. The answer and crossclaim entered on the docket on September 28, 2018 is hereby accepted for filing. Plaintiff's #300 Motion for Default Judgment is DENIED. Signed by Senior Judge Thomas J.

July 10, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 249 TEXT ORDER denying #248 Letter Request. On July 5, 2018, plaintiff filed a letter motion seeking service of summonses and the complaint upon defendants Film, Deas, Roy, and McCarthy. Dkt. No. 248. Plaintiff's request is denied for the following reasons. As to defendants Deas and Film, summonses were reissued on July 3, 2018. Dkt. No. 246. As to defendant Roy, counsel for Roy has appeared in this action and has filed a Motion to Dismiss on his behalf. Dkt. No. 240, 241. Finally, as to defendant McCarthy, service was attempted upon this defendant both by mail and in person, and summonses were returned unexecuted for both methods. Dkt. Nos. 236, 242. Plaintiff has failed to demonstrate that reissuing personal service upon McCarthy at the same address would be fruitful. If plaintiff is able to provide the Court with a new address or further information regarding defendant McCarthy that would be likely to lead to successful service upon this defendant, the Court will reissue summonses for McCarthy at that time. SO ORDERED by Magistrate Judge Christian F. Hummel on 7/10/2018. (Copy served via regular mail on 7/10/2018)(tab)
July 5, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 248 LETTER MOTION: Filed by Joshua G.

(rep) Modified on 7/6/2018 to correct the name of the USM form number from 4 to 5 (rep).
July 5, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 247 TEXT ORDER granting #244 Letter Request: On June 29, 2018, plaintiff filed a letter motion seeking the Court to order defendant Richard C. Giardino to identify the Unknown Members of the Fulton County k9 Team that participated in the planning and execution of the search warrant(s) at 138 Lousey Road, Rensselaer County, Stephentown, New York between April 29 and May 3, 2013. Dkt. No. 244 at 1. Plaintiff named, for the first time, Unknown Members of the Fulton County Canine Team in the Second Amended Complaint. Dkt. No. 134. In this Courts March 5, 2018 Decision and Order, as relevant here, the Court (1) reviewed whether the Second Amended Complaint, filed without leave of the Court and without apparent opposition from defendants, (2) determined that the Second Amended Complaint was futile as to many defendants and claims, and (3) addressed motions to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint filed by various defendants. Dkt. No. 201 at 7-8, 31, 33. The March 5, 2018 Decision and Order addressed the Unknown Members of the Fulton County Sheriffs Office Canine Team only insofar as it denied plaintiffs request for discovery from this defendant as moot, apparently because that defendant had not been served. Dkt. No. 201 at 43, 43 n.5. In its May 30, 2018 Order, the Court identified the Second Amended Complaint as the operative pleading. Dkt. No. 207 at 2-3. Therefore, the Clerk of the Court is directed to amend the docket to add as defendants Unknown Members of Fulton County Sheriffs Office Canine Team. Plaintiffs request, Dkt. No. 244, is GRANTED insofar as counsel for defendant Richard C. Giardino is directed, within thirty days of entry of this text order, to provide plaintiff with a list of individuals who were employed as members of the Fulton County Canine Team in March 2013, to the extent Mr. Giardino has such knowledge of the names of such individuals.

June 29, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 243 LETTER MOTION: Filed by Joshua G. Stegemann, pro se, dated June 25, 2018, memorializing that the U.S. Marshals were unable to effectuate service upon defendant Travas McCarthy and requesting a blank USM-285 form to complete and resubmit for service. (rep)
June 29, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 242 TEXT ORDER: Plaintiff filed a letter motion on May 29, 2018 requesting personal service on "those defendants that have previously refused to comply by mail." Dkt. No. #226 . Plaintiff contends that the "majority of the defendants presently pending service by mail" have "refused to comply with service by mail." Id. Plaintiff further contends that the Court's Order at Dkt. No. 207 directs personal service upon those defendants for whom initial service by mail was unsuccessful. Id. Thus, plaintiff requests the Court "direct the Marshals to comply with its order in Dkt. No. 207, at 2, and with Local Rule 5.1(g)." Id. at 1. Since plaintiff's letter motion, several defendants have acknowledged service and have appeared. Dkt. No. 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 237, 241. Summonses have been returned unexecuted for Defendant Travas McCarthy, Investigator Film, James Deas, and Subsurface Informational Surveys. Dkt. No. 230, 239. The U.S. Marshals has attempted to serve defendant McCarthy both by mail and by personal service, both methods have resulted in summonses being returned unexecuted. Dkt. Nos. 110, 236. Similarly, the U.S. Marshals completed personal service of defendant Subsurface Informational Surveys at the address provided in California. Dkt. No. 239. During the attempt of personal service, it was discovered that defendant Subsurface Informational Surveys does not exist at the address provided. Id. To the extent plaintiff's letter motion has requested that the Marshals attempt personal service on the defendants against whom service had been unsuccessful by mail, that request is granted insofar as the Marshals have already attempted personal service on such defendants. The Court notes that its March 30, 2018 Order, Dkt. No. 207, did not direct personal service on defendants Investigator Film and James Deas, as these defendants had not yet been served by mail at the time of that Order. See Dkt. No. 207. However, in order to assist plaintiff in effectuating service on defendants Film and Deas now that summonses by mail on these defendants were returned unexecuted, Dkt. No. 230, the U.S. Marshals are directed to attempt personal service on the following defendants: Investigator Film, and James Deas. Plaintiff's letter request, Dkt. No. 226, is otherwise denied. The Clerk of the Court is directed to complete USM-285 forms for defendants Film and Deas, reissue summonses and forward the necessary documents to the U.S. Marshal for personal service on these two defendants. SO ORDERED by Magistrate Judge Christian F. Hummel on 6/29/18. (served on plaintiff by regular mail) (alh, )
