30 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER **
Plaintiff Darreyll T. Thomas has filed a motion to alter or amend a decision
denying his motion for reconsideration of the screening order in this case. He now
appears to claim that certain defendants denied him adequate medical care with
deliberate indifference by assigning him to a top bunk at the Jail. The court has
allowed Thomas to proceed with his claim that certain defendants violated his
rights under the Eighth Amendment by using force against him or failing to
intervene, among other things, after Thomas refused to accept an assignment to the
top bunk. Thomas's contention appears to be that he was justified in refusing to
accept the top bunk for medical reasons and that the defendants were wrong to use
force against him as a result. But Thomas may make this argument in the context of
his excessive−force claim without raising a separate claim for deliberate
indifference or negligence where his bunk assignment is concerned. Accordingly,
for the same reasons already stated in this case, Thomas does not allege facts
showing that he has a separate claim for deliberate indifference or negligence with
respect to his bunk assignment. Therefore, his motion to alter or amend (dkt. # 27 )
is DENIED. Signed by District Judge William M. Conley on 6/2/2014. (jef),(ps)

57 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER **
On August 6, 2014, the court granted defendants' motion to dismiss the prisoner
civil rights case filed by plaintiff Darreyll T. Thomas. Thereafter, the court denied
Thomas's motion to reopen and his motion for reconsideration. Citing the court's
adverse rulings, Thomas has now filed a motion asking the court to recuse itself
from this case. The motion must be denied for two reasons. First, adverse judicial
rulings are not evidence of bias or prejudice and do not require recusal. Liteky v.
United States, 510 U.S. 540, 555 (1994); Brokaw v. Mercer County, 235 F.3d
1000, 1025 (7th Cir. 2000). Plaintiff does not otherwise show that disqualification
is required pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 144, 455. Second, this case is now closed,
meaning that there is nothing left to decide. As such, plaintiff's motion is moot.
Therefore, plaintiff's motion to recuse (dkt. # 56 ) is DENIED. Signed by District
Judge William M. Conley on 10/28/2014. (elc),(ps) (Entered: 10/28/2014)
