No. 9 MEMORANDUM OPINION & ORDER: 1. Plaintiff Matthews' Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis ...

Document Matthews v. Paul, Warden et al, 5:24-cv-00192, No. 9 (E.D.Ky. Aug. 8, 2024)
Motion to Proceed in Forma PauperisDenied
Proceeding without an attorney, Matthews filed a complaint asserting claims against Defendants Warden David Paul, Michael Broughton, Greg Gilbert, and Timothy Terrell pursuant to the doctrine of Bivens v. Six Unknown Federal Narcotics Agents, 403 U.S. 388 (1971).
Next, the Eighth Amendment prohibits any punishment which violates civilized standards of decency or “involve[s] the unnecessary and wanton infliction of pain.” Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97, 102–03 (1976) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted).
In a series of decisions (most recently Ziglar v. Abbasi, 137 S. Ct. 1843 (2017), Hernandez v. Mesa, 140 S. Ct. 735, 743 (2020), and Egbert v. Boule, 142 S. Ct. 1793 (2022)), the United States Supreme Court reiterated in strong terms that the damages remedy implied in Bivens will rarely extend to contexts that differ meaningfully from three discrete circumstances where it has previously been recognized.
In this case, Matthews’ Eighth Amendment claim based upon allegations that his cell was in an unsafe condition due to prison officials’ neglect presents a context that is entirely new and different from those previously recognized by the Supreme Court as cognizable under Bivens.
As the Sixth Circuit recognized in Callahan, “[r]unning a prison is an inordinately difficult undertaking that requires expertise, planning, and the commitment of resources,” all tasks that fall “peculiarly within the province of the legislative and executive branches.” Id. (quoting Turner v. Safley, 482 U.S. 78, 84-85 (1987)).
