April 22, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 115 ORDER denying 113 Motion. This matter has recently been reassigned to me.

May 10, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 42 OPINION AND ORDER re: 31 MOTION to Dismiss pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) filed by Hennesy, Orazio Bucolo, Megan Wright, Robert V. Bentivegna, Adrian Bowden. For the foregoing reasons, Defendants' Motion to Dismiss is g ranted in part and denied in part. The Court dismisses the claims against Wright and Hennesy, the § 1983 conspiracy claim, and the Fourteenth Amendment substantive due process claim. However, because this is the first adjudication of Plaintiff&# 039;s claims on the merits, the dismissal is without prejudice. See Terry v. Inc. Vill. Of Patchogue, 826 F.3d 631,633 (2d Cir. 2016) (explaining that "district judges should, as a general matter, liberally permit pro se litigants to amend thei r pleadings" unless "amendment would be futile"). Should Plaintiff choose to file an amended complaint, he must do so within 30 days of this Opinion, addressing the deficiencies identified herein. The new amended complaint will replac e, not supplement, the complaint currently before the Court. It therefore must contain all of the claims and factual allegations Plaintiff wishes the Court to consider. The Court will not consider factual allegations raised in supplemental declaratio ns, affidavits, or letters. If Plaintiff fails to abide by the 30-day deadline, the dismissed claims could be dismissed with prejudice, and the case will go forward only on the Eighth Amendment claims against Bowden, Bucolo, and Bentivegna. The Cler k of the Court is respectfully requested to terminate the pending motion, (Dkt. No. 31), and to mail a copy of this Opinion to Plaintiff. SO ORDERED. Party Hennesy and Megan Wright (Psychiatrist OMH) terminated. (Signed by Judge Kenneth M. Karas on 5/9/2018) (mml)
