Disposition notice
In Document 27, filed November 6, 2026 and dated November 5, 2026, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California, signed by District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston, adopted in full the September 10, 2026 Findings and Recommendations (Document 25) concerning screening of Aaron Vrh’s fourth amended complaint. The order states that the court conducted de novo review under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) after Vrh filed timely objections, and found the recommendations supported by the record and proper analysis.
The action proceeds only on Vrh’s Eighth Amendment threat-to-safety claims against defendants Gamboa, Sasselli, and Zoucha. All other claims are dismissed without leave to amend in light of the previous screening order, previous amendments, and futility. Defendants California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and V. Cantu are dismissed with prejudice, and the matching docket entry records them as terminated. The action is referred back to the assigned magistrate judge for further proceedings. This is a screening-stage disposition, not a merits ruling on the surviving claims. The supplied two-page order does not reproduce the underlying claim-by-claim reasoning; that reasoning is in the separately issued Document 25, which is not supplied here.
