Case No. 13-cv-792-GPM

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
MURPHY, District Judge:
This matter is before the Court for case management. Previously, the Court conducted a
merits review of Plaintiff’s claims pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (Doc. 10). As a result, the
Court dismissed one Defendant—Wexford Health Sources, Inc.—from the action, and set
Plaintiff’s motion for preliminary injunction/temporary restraining order (“TRO”) (Doc. 4) for
hearing.

The Court conducted an evidentiary hearing on that motion for preliminary

injunction/TRO on September 10, 2013. The motion was denied (Doc. 31).
As the Defendants have been served and the motion for injunctive relief has been
disposed of, the case shall now be referred to United States Magistrate Judge Donald G.
Wilkerson for further consideration of Plaintiff’s claims.
Pending Motions
The following motions shall be referred to Judge Wilkerson for disposition: Plaintiff’s
motion for recruitment of counsel (Doc. 3); the motion for protective order (Doc. 28) filed by

Defendants Coe and Cunningham; and the motion for extension of time filed by Defendants
Hodge and Martin (Doc. 32).
Disposition
Pursuant to Local Rule 72.1(a)(2), this action is REFERRED to United States Magistrate
Judge Donald G. Wilkerson for further pre-trial proceedings.
Further, this entire matter shall be REFERRED to United States Magistrate Judge
Wilkerson for disposition, pursuant to Local Rule 72.2(b)(2) and 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), if all
parties consent to such a referral.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED: September 11, 2013
s/ G. Patrick Murphy
