LEE P. ee UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

'Doe. 6. ? Because of the availability of post-deprivation remedies, the Court need not address the legal distinction between negligent and intentional deprivation of property. See Daniels v. Williams,

(1986). 3 Nothing in this Order should be taken to suggest that a motion to dismiss/motion for judgment on the pleadings would be inappropriate as to some or all of the claims that Judge Ervin allowed past the screening stage.
