Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • stating, in affirming a denial of a motion to amend, that the plaintiff is not foreclosed from raising the additional claims in a later action
  • affirming denial of a motion where the proposed amendment would have introduced new defendants and claims that were unrelated to the original complaint
  • “if any claim of medical indifference . . . is to succeed, it must be brought against the individual directly responsible for [Plaintiffs] medical care.”
  • no abuse of discretion when magistrate judge denied amendment of § 1983 inmate claims because it would be “inefficient and possibly confusing to add defendants and claims which had nothing to do with the original complaint.”
