Case Summary

On December 6, 2002, a prisoner in Florida's Okeechobee Correctional Institution (OCI), represented by counsel from the Florida Justice Institute, sued in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that his Eighth Amendment right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment was being violated by the defendants' failure to provide him appropriate medical care.

On December 6, 2002, a prisoner in Florida's Okeechobee Correctional Institution (OCI), represented by counsel from the Florida Justice Institute, sued in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that his Eighth Amendment right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment was being violated by the defendants' failure to provide him appropriate medical care. The lead defendant was Florida's contract medical service provider for OCI; also named as defendants were associated state and corporate individuals overseeing the contract medical provider's conduct. The plaintiff alleged that he had been treated elsewhere in the Florida prison system for his Hepatitis-C and cirrhosis but that when he was transferred to OCI, the medically-indicated treatments were halted solely for cost-saving reasons. Needing Interferon and Ribavirin treatments for his condition, he sought injunctive relief, declaratory relief, and attorneys' fees.

At the same time he filed his complaint, the plaintiff also sought, via motion, a preliminary injunction to require the defendants arrange that a gastroenterologist consult with him and provide the requested FDA-approved treatment regimen. The defendants, in their opposition to the motion, argued that the matter arose from a difference of opinion between doctors about medical care and was not a matter of deliberate indifference to plaintiff's medical needs. The plaintiff contended in response that the medical opinions cited by the defense were unreliable and self-serving, compared to the plaintiff's medical experts' opinions.

On January 7 and 9, 2003, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint. The motion for a preliminary injunction and motions to dismiss were referred to U.S. Magistrate Judge Frank J. Lynch, Jr. On March 4, 2003, Magistrate Judge Lynch issued two separate reports and recommendations. First, he recommended denying the motion to dismiss. One defendant, who was Secretary of the Department of Corrections, had argued that the claims against him should be dismissed because providing health care to inmates was outside of the scope of his duties, but Magistrate Judge Lynch rejected this argument. The defendants had also argued that the plaintiff failed to state a prima facie case that his Eighth Amendment rights had been violated, but Magistrate Judge Lynch disagreed, explaining that the allegation that the defendants did not provide the treatment recommended by most of the plaintiff's doctors was enough for a prima facie case. On April 28, 2003, District Judge James C. Paine adopted the report and recommendation and denied the motion to dismiss.

Magistrate Judge Lynch also recommended that the plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction be denied. However, on April 29, 2003, Judge Paine reversed the magistrate judge's recommendation and granted the motion. Judge Paine held that the plaintiff had sufficiently shown a substantial threat of irreparable injury and a substantial likelihood of prevailing on the merits of his Eighth Amendment claim. Therefore, he ordered the defendants to let the plaintiff see a gastroenterologist and to provide the treatment that the gastroenterologist recommended.

On July 24, 2003, after an emergency motion by the plaintiff, Judge Paine entered an order making the preliminary injunction permanent, requiring the Interferon and Ribavirin treatments, and directing the parties to attempt to resolve the attorneys' fee issues within ninety days.

On November 18, 2003, the plaintiff's counsel filed a notice with the court that a settlement had been reached with the defendant on the matter of attorney fee payment. Specifics were not provided. On January 12, 2004, Judge Paine directed the court clerk to close the case, but reserved jurisdiction to enforce the previously-entered injunction. As of June 2024, there were no further developments.
