Jones v. Pillow
Citation: 11 F. App'x 686Docket: No. 00-3478
Court: Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit; June 7, 2001; Federal Appellate Court
William Jones, an Arkansas inmate, appeals the district court's grant of summary judgment against him in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, which claimed deliberate indifference to his serious medical needs. Upon conducting a de novo review of the summary judgment record, the court found that the uncontroverted evidence demonstrated that the appellees did not neglect Jones’s medical needs or impede his access to medical care. As a result, Jones's claims of deliberate indifference were unsuccessful. The decision of the district court is affirmed, with reference to relevant precedents including Estelle v. Gamble, Long v. Nix, and Bellecourt v. United States. The ruling was issued by the Honorable James Maxwell Moody, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
