Honorable Paul L. Maloney

Defendants.
____________________________________/
ORDER FOR PARTIAL DISMISSAL
and PARTIAL SERVICE
In accordance with the Opinion filed this date:
IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s action against Defendant Kent County Correctional
Facility Administration be DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE for failure to state a claim upon which
relief may be granted pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e) and 1915A, and 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(c).
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff’s due-process claim against Defendant
Demory will be DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE for failure to state a claim.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk shall forward the complaint to the U.S.
Marshals Service, which is authorized to mail a request for waiver of service to Defendant Demory
in the manner prescribed by Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(d)(2). If waiver of service is unsuccessful, summons
shall issue and be forwarded to the U.S. Marshals Service for service under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d).
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant Demory shall file an appearance of
counsel (individual Defendants may appear pro se if they do not have counsel) within 21 days of

service or, in the case of a waiver of service, 60 days after the waiver of service was sent. Until so
ordered by the Court, no Defendant is required to file an answer or motion in response to the
complaint, and no default will be entered for failure to do so. See 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(g)(1). After
Defendant has filed an appearance, proceedings in this case will be governed by the Court’s Standard
Case Management Order in a Prisoner Civil Rights Case.
