March 4, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 78 MEMORANDUM (Order to follow as separate docket entry)As discussed earlier, under Woodford prisoners are required to comply with grievance system procedural rules when exhausting their administrative remedies. Since the undisputed record establishes t hat Flynn' s failure to do so resulted in the rejection of his complaints of retaliation, a finding of non-exhaustion and entry of summary judgment under the well settled Spruill and Woodford standards is appropriate. Rema i ning Defendants ' request for summary judgment will be granted. An appropriate Order will enter.Signed by Honorable Richard P. Conaboy on 3/4/16. (cc)
February 3, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 64 MEMORANDUM (Order to follow as separate docket entry)Given the liberal treatment afforded to pro se litigants, the Plaintiff has arguably set forth a viable claim that his exercise of constitutionally protected conduct was a substantial or motivating factor for his RHU placement and cell search. Since this Court has been presented with only sparse facts which does not satisfy Remaining Defendants burden of showing that their actions would have been taken regardless of Plaintiffs submission of a grievance, the request for summary judgment will be denied. An appropriate Order will enter.Signed by Honorable Richard P. Conaboy on 2/3/15. (cc)
