LINDSEY v. INDIANA DEPT OF CORRECTIONS et al

Filing 43

Entry Denying Motion for Preliminary Injunction and Order to Show Cause - Plaintiff Joshua Lindsey, a State prisoner, filed this civil action alleging that the defendants used excessive force against him in retaliation for a small claims lawsuit L indsey previously filed. Lindsey now claims that he is exposed to a substantial threat for additional injuries due to the denial of recreational time and the conditions of his confinement if he remains at the Wabash Valley Correctional Facility (&q uot;WVCF"). The motion for preliminary injunction [dkt. 22] is denied. Lindsey submitted two altered versions of a document entitled XRay Consultation. The complete versions are attached Exhibits 1 and 2. These documents suggest that Lindse y has intentionally filed misleading and altered medical documents to fraudulently support his claims against the defendants. Consistent with Rule 11(c)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Lindsey shall have through September 12, 2013, in which to show cause why the submission of the two versions of the document entitled X-Ray Consultation has not violated Rule 11(b) and why sanctions up to and including dismissal should not be imposed. (See Entry.) Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 8/20/2013. (Attachments: # 1 Exhibit 1, # 2 Exhibit 2)(RSF)
