Crumble v. United States of America

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK MICHAEL CRUMBLE, Plaintiff, 1:23-CV-4427 (LTS) -against- CIVIL JUDGMENT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant. For the reasons discussed in the Court’s August 7, 2023 order, the Court dismisses this action. The Court: (1) dismisses Plaintiff’s claims against the United States of America arising from events alleged to have occurred at the Federal Correctional Institution in Otisville, New York (“FCI Otisville”), under the doctrine of sovereign immunity and, consequently, for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and for seeking monetary relief from a defendant that is immune from such relief, see Fed. R. Civ. 12(h)(3);

28 U.S.C. § 1915

(e)(2)(B)(iii); (2) dismisses Plaintiff’s claims under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics,

403 U.S. 388

(1971), arising from events alleged to have occurred at FCI Otisville without prejudice; and (3) dismisses Plaintiff’s claims for habeas corpus relief under

28 U.S.C. § 2241

as to the execution of Plaintiff’s sentence at FCI Otisville without prejudice. Because Plaintiff’s claims for habeas corpus relief do not make substantial showing of a denial of a constitutional right, a certificate of appealability will not issue. See

28 U.S.C. § 2253

. The Court certifies under

28 U.S.C. § 1915

(a)(3) that any appeal from the Court’s judgment would not be taken in good faith. SO ORDERED. Dated: November 14, 2023 New York, New York
