Date Filed Document Text
July 23, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 15 Memorandum of Opinion and Order For the reasons set forth herein, Eleventh Amendment immunity does not bar Plaintiff's claims. Viewing the Complaint (ECF No. 1 ) in the light most favorable to him, Plaintiff has sufficiently alleged th at Defendants acted with malice in violation of his right against cruel and unusual punishment. Plaintiff has properly alleged a claim for a violation of his Eighth amendment rights under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. As Plaintiff has alleged a violation of a well-established Constitutional right, qualified immunity does not apply to Defendants' alleged actions. Accordingly, Defendants' Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 10 ) is denied. The Court will separately issue a Telephonic Case Management Conference Scheduling Order. Judge Benita Y. Pearson on 7/23/2018. (JLG)
