Pro se plaintiff Santiago Gomez brought this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983. On October 3, 2014, the Honorable David E. Peebles, United States Magistrate
Judge, advised by Report-Recommendation that plaintiff's second amended complaint be

medical indifference claims. No objections to the Report-Recommendation were filed.
Based upon a careful review of the entire file and the recommendations of the
Magistrate Judge, the Report-Recommendation is accepted in whole. See 28 U.S.C.

further amended complaint that corrects the pleading deficiencies described herein. Plaintiff is advised
that any such motion must be supported by a proposed amended complaint that is a complete pleading
intended to replace and supersede the second amended complaint in its entirety. Any proposed amended
complaint must allege claims of misconduct or wrongdoing against each named defendant that plaintiff
has a legal right to pursue, and over which this court may properly exercise jurisdiction, and must comply
with the pleading requirements of Rules 8 and 10 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
