In Plaintiff’s objections, Plaintiff asks that the “names signed to the grievances” be added to his
claims. Plaintiff fails to allege how each personally violated his rights. Further, a prison official's
denial of grievances is insufficient to impose liability under § 1983. See Rowe v. Norris, 198 Fed.
Appx. 579(8th Cir.2006). Accordingly, Plaintiff’s request is denied.
