United States Second Circuit


Ceara v. Deacon, 17-569

Held that a state inmate could proceed with his claims that a prison corrections officer assaulted him. The civil rights lawsuit was timely because an amendment to correctly identify the officer's name related back to the original complaint. Reversed a summary judgment ruling and remanded.
