Plaintiff Matthew John Lewis, a pretrial detainee, brings two First Amendment retaliation claims and three Fourteenth Amendment deliberate indifference claims against four Defendants, Deputy Ramerez, Loraine Skinner, Dr. Waits, and Dr. Brucelle, each employed by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. Plaintiff alleges that two Defendants, Deputy Ramerez and Loraine Skinner, retaliated against him for filing administrative grievances by threatening inmate-on-inmate violence and destroying Plaintiff’s property. He separately alleges that Deputy Ramerez knowingly failed to protect him from inmate violence despite Plaintiff’s repeated requests for intervention. Moreover, Plaintiff avers that Defendants Dr. Brucelle and Dr. Waits were both deliberately indifferent to his medical needs by refusing to treat Plaintiff’s opioid withdrawal symptoms for non-medical reasons. This case is in its early stages, as Defendants have not yet been served with the summons and Complaint. If interested, please email FLSD_ProBono@flsd.uscourts.gov

The Plaintiff, Robert Schuller, has filed a civil-rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that the Defendant, Dr. Alain Diaz, was deliberately indifferent to his medical needs under the Eighth Amendment. Since March 2023, Schuller complained of neck swelling and pain, which he attributes to a chicken bone that, he says, has been stuck in his throat since November 2022. The Defendant—a doctor employed at Everglades Correctional Institution—has twice refuted Schuller’s complaints, but Schuller avers that the Defendant intentionally falsified his diagnosis and failed to alleviate Schuller’s pain or provide his “next step in [his] plan of care.” Because of the Defendant’s deliberate indifference, Schuller claims he is in “tremendous pain,” which he describes as a “knife in [his] throat and left ear drum.” Schuller will be seeking damages. This case is in its early stages, as the Defendant has not yet been served. If interested, please email FLSD_ProBono@flsd.uscourts.gov
