ORDE R The Court has reviewed the Proposed Findings and Recommended Partial Disposition submitted by United States Magistrate Judge J. Thomas Ray and the filed objections. After carefully considering these documents and making a de novo review of the record in this case, the Court concludes that the Proposed Findings and Recommended Partial Disposition should be, and hereby are, approved and adopted in their entirety as this Court's findings in all respects. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that: 1. Pursuant to the screening function mandated by 28 U.S.C. § 1915A: (a) Plaintiff shall

PROCEED with his inadequate medical care, retaliatory disciplinary, and excessive force claims against Defendants Stewart, Lumpkins, Andrews, Bettis, Pichouski, and Hoskins; and (b) all other claims and Defendants are DISMISSED, WITHOUT PREJUDICE. 2. The Court CERTIFIES, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), than an in forma pauperis

appeal from this Order would not be taken in good faith. 3. The Clerk is directed to prepare a summons for Defendants Stewart, Lumpkins,

Andrews, Bettis, Pichouski, and Hoskins. The United States Marshal is directed to serve the summons, the Complaint (docket entry #2), the Amended Complaint (docket entry #9), the Second
