Ruling
The judgment states that, for the reasons given in the court’s opinion and order dated March 8, 2023, the defendants’ motion for summary judgment was granted. Summary judgment is a decision resolving claims without a trial when the governing standard is met, but the provided judgment does not state the claims, evidence, or reasoning discussed in the underlying opinion and order.
The court also certified under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any appeal from the order would not be taken in good faith. It therefore denied Joseph Lee permission to proceed without paying the required fees for an appeal. The case was closed.
Effect
The defendants prevailed on the summary-judgment motion, and the judgment closed this case. The provided text does not identify the specific legal claims or explain the court’s merits analysis.
