Culp, NDSH Secure Services Unit
Coordinator, Dr. Ernster, NDSH
Physician, Randy Perkins, NDSH
Secure Services Nurse Practitioner,

capacity,
Defendants.

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636, the court has received a Report and Recommendation
from the Honorable Alice R. Senechal, United States Magistrate Judge.1 The Report and
Recommendation recommends that Plaintiff Ryan Corman’s motion for injunctive relief
be denied. Corman timely filed objections to the Report and Recommendation.2
In his objections, Corman reasserts that he is unlawfully being prevented from legal
research and claims his rights to a fair hearing, due process, and equal protection are being
interfered with by agents of the State of North Dakota, that he has great difficulty writing
his submissions due to the cold weather and arthritis, that the state court proceedings were
predicated on crimes committed by the state’s attorney and other “state paid bad actors”,
and that unethical and illegal conduct continues. None of Corman’s objections address the

two basic issues: (1) Corman may not obtain an injunction on claims that are not set forth
in his complaint or which have been dismissed by earlier orders of the court; and (2) the
court cannot order an injunction against persons who are not defendants in this action.
The court has considered Corman’s objections and the record. After reviewing the
magistrate judge’s Report and Recommendation, the record, and Corman’s objections, the
court finds the magistrate judge’s analysis and recommendation for disposition is
appropriate. Accordingly, the court hereby adopts the Report and Recommendation in its
entirety. Corman’s motion for injunctive relief is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 7th day of March, 2017.
