Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
the Court are Plaintiff’s objections.
(Doc. 5).
Also before
(Doc. 7).
The court has reviewed this case de novo and, being well and
sufficiently advised, finds as follows: Plaintiff’s objection to
the portion of the report and recommendation recommending dismissal
for his action being barred by the statute of limitations is
sustained. Plaintiff timely filed his action within the three year
statute of limitations.
The report and recommendation is adopted
as to the recommendation that Plaintiff’s action be dismissed as
Andrea Davis, acting as a public defender, is not subject to suit,
and Judge Mcallum is immune from suit.
Plaintiff contends he also sued both defendants in their
individual

(Rev. 8/82)
capacities.
The
Court
has
reviewed
Plaintiff’s
Complaint and presumes Plaintiff only sued defendants in their
official capacities, because the complaint does not specifically
name then in their individual capacities.
