ALEX BRAY, et al.
DEFENDANTS
ORDER
The Court has received and reviewed a Partial Recommended Disposition filed by United
States Magistrate Judge Beth Deere (Dkt. No. 115). After careful review of plaintiff Donald
Winnett’s timely objections, as well as a de novo review of the record, the Court concludes that
the Partial Recommended Disposition should be, and hereby is, approved and adopted as this
Court’s findings in all respects (Dkt. No. 115).
The motion to dismiss filed by separate defendants Dean Yancey and Arlen Parham is
granted in part and denied in part (Dkt. No. 68). To the extent that Mr. Yancey and Mr. Parham
move to dismiss Mr. Winnett’s claims under the First Amendment and the Religious Land Use
and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000, 42 U.S.C.A. §§ 2000cc, et seq., their motion is denied.
To the extent that Mr. Yancey and Mr. Parham move to dismiss Mr. Winnett’s claims for money
damages against them in their official capacities, their motion is granted. Mr. Winnett’s claims
for injunctive relief against Mr. Yancey and Mr. Parham in their official capacities may proceed.
Dated this 2nd day of December, 2016.
