Frisby v. Hahn
Trial Court Opinion
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF OREGON DARCY ROY FRISBY, Case No. 3:19-cv-00775-JR Plaintiff, ORDER v. THOMAS J. HAHN, et al., Defendants. HERNÁNDEZ, Chief Judge. Plaintiff, an inmate at the Deer Ridge Correctional Institution, brings this civil rights action pro se. On January 17, 2020, this court issued an Order dismissing plaintiff's Complaint pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2). Due to plaintiff's pro se status, the court advised plaintiff of the deficiencies of his Complaint and granted plaintiff leave to file an Amended Complaint curing those deficiencies. Currently before the court is plaintiff's Amended Complaint (ECF No. 16). Plaintiff's Amended Complaint fails to cure the deficiencies noted in the Order dismissing his original Complaint. Specifically, plaintiff fails to allege facts establishing that his claims 1 - ORDER pertaining to the alleged illegal search and seizure of his property are not barred under Heck v. Humphrey,
512 U.S. 477(1994). As to his claims pertaining to the alleged destruction of his personal property, plaintiff does not allege facts sufficient to establish that the destruction was authorized pursuant to established state procedures, regulations, or statutes, and because a state post- deprivation remedy is available, plaintiff does not allege a claim upon which relief may be granted under
42 U.S.C. § 1983. Hudson v. Palmer,
468 U.S. 517, 533(1984). Finally, to the extent plaintiffs Amended Complaint alleges a claim under the Oregon Tort Claims Act, because the court finds that plaintiff fails to state any cognizable federal claims, the court will not exercise supplemental jurisdiction over plaintiff's putative state law claim.' CONCLUSION For these reasons, the court DISMISSES plaintiff's Amended Complaint, without prejudice. IT IS SO ORDERED. DATED this 4 day of April, 2020.
