ORDER DISMISSING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION [15]
TO PROCEED ON COMPLAINT
This matter comes before the court on the plaintiff’s “Motion to Proceed on Complaint.” In
the motion, the plaintiff sets forth various allegations arising out of his stay at the South Mississippi
Correctional Institution. In its order of June 23, 2017, the court bifurcated this case, keeping Mr.
Roop’s claims arising out of his incarceration in Itawamba County in the present case – and directing
the Clerk of the Court to open a separate case for Mr. Roop to pursue his claims against the Mississippi
Department of Corrections. As the instant motion [15] involves his stay in the custody of the
Mississippi Department of Corrections, it is DISMISSED without prejudice to pursue relief as to these
allegations in the case involving the Mississippi Department of Corrections.

SO ORDERED, this, the 11th day of September, 2017.

/s/ Jane M. Virden
UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
