Jennifer Ann JASMAINE, f/k/a Duane Leroy Fox, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Mr. FUTRELLE, Head of Mental Health; A. Daughety, RN Lead Nurse; Dr. Elizabeth Byrd; Dr. Owens; Ms. Hackett, Head Chaplain; Mr. Daniels, Administrator, Defendants-Appellees, M. Magana, RN Lead Nurse; Officer Miley; Sgt. Jackson; Officer Lindsey; Charlene Richardson; Ms. Collens, Case Manager; Finesse G. Couch, Director; John Does of Grievance Resolution Board Members; Clarence O. Ellis; Jane Doe, Director of Mental Health, Defendants.
Jennifer Ann Jasmaine appeals the district court's order granting summary judgment to Defendants on her 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint alleging deliberate indifference to her medical needs, in violation of the Eighth Amendment, and violations of the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA), 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000cc to 2000cc-5 (2012), and her First Amendment right to free exercise of religion. Because Jasmaine no longer resides in the correctional facility that formed the basis for her RLUIPA claim, we dismiss this claim as moot. See Rendelman v. Rouse, 569 F.3d 182, 186-87 (4th Cir. 2009). As to the other claims, we have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the remainder of the order for the reasons stated by the district court. Jasmaine v. Futrelle, No. 5:15-ct-03294-FL (E.D.N.C. Sept. 26, 2018). We deny Jasmaine's motions to appoint counsel, to refile the appeal, and to suspend the proceedings. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
