REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS - Having screened the Complaint (Doc. 1-1) under 28 U.S.C. 1915, the Undersigned RECOMMENDS that the Court DISMISS all the claims in this case. Specifically, the Court should dismiss: 1. All claims against Judge Branch, as barred by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine, sovereign immunity, the statutory language of 1983, Younger abstention, and/or because all the federal claims have been dismissed. 2. Any claims against the Cincinnati Police Department, the Hamilton County Prosecutors Office, and the State of Ohio, as these Defendants are not persons under 1983 and the State is immune from suit under the Eleventh Amendment. 3. Any claims attempting to bring federal criminal charges against any Defendant. 4. All claims against Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Blake, as no plausible claim is stated against him or her. 5. All claims against Officers Dezarn, Goetz, Abt, and Dunahay, on the basis of Younger abstention. The Undersigned further RECOMMENDS that the Court CERTIFY pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(3) that, for the reasons discussed above, an appeal of any Order adopting this Report and Recommendations would not be taken in good faith, and therefore, deny Plaintiff leave to appeal it in forma pauperis. Objections to R&R due by 2/27/2024. Signed by Magistrate Judge Karen L. Litkovitz on 02/12/2024. (bjc)(This document has been sent by regular mail to the party(ies) listed in the NEF that did not receive electronic notification.)
