ORDER
The Court has reviewed the Proposed Findings and Recommendations submitted by
United States Magistrate Judge Joe J. Volpe (Dkt. No. 9) and plaintiff Lawrence Martin’s
objections (Dkt. No. 10). After careful review of the recommendation, Mr. Martin’s objections,
and a de novo review of the record, the Court concludes that the Proposed Findings and
Recommendations should be, and hereby are, approved and adopted in their entirety as this
Court’s findings in all respects. The Court denies Mr. Martin’s motion for the appointment of
counsel and for an injunction / restraining order (Dkt. No. 6).
The Court also has reviewed the second Partial Recommended Disposition submitted by
Magistrate Judge Volpe (Dkt. No. 19) and the objections filed by Mr. Martin (Dkt. No. 20).
After careful review of the recommendation, Mr. Martin’s objections, and 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. The Court dismisses without
prejudice Mr. Martin’s claims against Corizon Correctional Medical Services and Governor
Mike Beebe. The Court dismisses with prejudice Mr. Martin’s claim that defendants violated the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) by disclosing his
personal medical information.
It is therefore ordered that:
1.
Mr. Martin’s motion for the appointment of counsel and for an injunction /
restraining order is denied (Dkt. No. 6).
2.
Mr. Martin’s claims against Corizon Correctional Medical Services are dismissed
without prejudice.
