ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO DISMISS
AND GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART DEFENDANT'S MOTION
FOR PARTIAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT
Plaintiff Jasen DuShane is an inmate in federal custody, who was
previously incarcerated at FCI Terre Haute. He alleges that Defendants did not
provide him with adequate mental health care and retaliated against him for
filing grievances and making other complaints. Mr. DuShane brings claims of
negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress against the United
States under the Federal Tort Claims Act ("FTCA") and Bivens claims against
individual Defendants for deliberate indifference in violation of the Eighth
Amendment. Defendant United States of America has moved for summary
judgment as to some of the claims against it. Dkt. [52]. The individual
defendants have moved to dismiss all the claims against them. Dkt. [55]. For
the reasons below, the United States' motion for summary judgment, dkt. [52],
is granted in part and denied in part, and the individual Defendants' motion
to dismiss, dkt. [55], is granted.

I.
Standards of Review
A. Summary Judgment
A motion for summary judgment asks the Court to find that a trial is
unnecessary because there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and,
instead, the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 56(a). When reviewing a motion for summary judgment, the Court views the
record and draws all reasonable inferences from it in the light most favorable to
the nonmoving party. Khungar v. Access Cmty. Health Network, 985 F.3d 565,
572 (7th Cir. 2021). It cannot weigh evidence or make credibility
determinations on summary judgment because those tasks are left to the fact-
finder. Miller v. Gonzalez, 761 F.3d 822, 827 (7th Cir. 2014). A court only has
to consider the materials cited by the parties, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c)(3); it

need not "scour the record" for evidence that might be relevant. Grant v. Trs. of
Ind. Univ., 870 F.3d 562, 572 (7th Cir. 2017) (cleaned up).
A party seeking summary judgment must inform the district court of the
basis for its motion and identify the record evidence it contends demonstrates
the absence of a genuine issue of material fact. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477
U.S. 317, 323 (1986).
Whether a party asserts that a fact is undisputed or genuinely disputed,
the party must support the asserted fact by citing to particular parts of the
record, including depositions, documents, or affidavits. Fed. R. Civ.

P. 56(c)(1)(A). Failure to properly support a fact in opposition to a movant's
factual assertion can result in the movant's fact being considered undisputed,
and potentially in the grant of summary judgment. Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(e).
B. Dismissal for Failure to State a Claim
Defendants may move under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) to
dismiss claims for "failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted."
Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6). To survive a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss, a
complaint must "contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to 'state a

claim to relief that is plausible on its face.'" Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662,
678 (2009) (quoting Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007)). A
facially plausible claim is one that allows "the court to draw the reasonable
inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged." Id. In other
words, a plausible claim "must allege enough details about the subject-matter
of the case to present a story that holds together," Bilek v. Fed. Ins. Co., 8 F.4th
581, 586 (7th Cir. 2021), "but it need not supply the specifics required at the
summary-judgment stage." Graham v. Bd. of Educ., 8 F.4th 625, 627 (7th Cir.

2021). When ruling on 12(b)(6) motion, the Court "accept[s] the well-pleaded
facts in the complaint as true," McCauley v. City of Chicago, 671 F.3d 611, 616
(7th Cir. 2011), and gives the plaintiff "the benefit of imagination, so long as the
hypotheses are consistent with the complaint." Chapman v. Yellow Cab Coop.,
875 F.3d 846, 848 (7th Cir. 2017) (cleaned up). However, it will not defer to
"legal conclusions and conclusory allegations merely reciting the elements of
the claim." McCauley, 671 F.3d at 616.

II.
Factual Background
For purposes of the motion to dismiss, the Court accepts all well-pleaded
facts in Mr. DuShane's complaint as true. McCauley, 671 F.3d at 616.
For purposes of the summary judgment motion, the Court views and
recites the evidence in the light most favorable to Mr. DuShane and draws all
reasonable inferences in his favor. Khungar, 985 F.3d at 572–73.
A. The Parties
At all relevant times to the allegations in the complaint,
• Mr. DuShane was an inmate housed at the Federal Correctional
Complex in Terre Haute, Indiana ("FCC Terre Haute"). Dkt. 1 at 1.

caption.
2 The clerk is directed to change the spelling of "Houghs" to "Hughes" in the caption.
B. Mr. DuShane's Mental Health Treatment
1. Dr. Vigil
From December 2019 through September 2020, Dr. Vigil was Mr.
DuShane's assigned psychologist. Dkt. 1 at 2. During that time, Dr. Vigil and
Mr. DuShane had a personal relationship and called one another "friend." Id.

In September 2020, Dr. Vigil told Mr. DuShane they could no longer call one
another "friend," and Mr. DuShane responded by requesting a new doctor
because he "was very upset, felt suicidal and needed help." Id. He spoke with
Dr. Davis, who told Mr. Dushane that Mr. Dushane was the only one who saw
the relationship with Dr. Vigil as a casual friendship, and that he had crossed
Dr. Vigil's boundaries. Id. Despite Mr. DuShane insisting the friendship had
been mutual, no other member of the psychology team, including Drs. Osborn,
Myers, Sacchetti, and Davis, would counsel him regarding his relationship with

Dr. Vigil. Id. at 3-4.
On March 18, 2021, Dr. Osborn was assigned as Mr. DuShane's new
psychologist. Id. at 5. She was immediately "confrontational" and told him
"not to cross her boundaries or ask any personal questions." Id. at 5-6. Mr.
DuShane professed thoughts of injuring himself, "which he had never felt like
doing by cutting prior to this," and requested to be seen at least once every two
weeks. Id. at 6. Dr. Osborn remained Mr. DuShane's psychologist until
August 2022, when Dr. McCarthy took over as Mr. DuShane's primary

psychologist. Id. at 32.
In June 2021, Mr. DuShane received a "stalking memo" issued by Dr.
Vigil. Id. It stated that all psychology staff were part of the memo and Mr.
DuShane was ordered to "[l]eave Psychology alone." Id. at 11-12.

2. Lexington program
In March 2022, Mr. DuShane asked Dr. Osborn if she would help him
get into a program at a facility in Lexington. Id. Dr. Osborn asked what he
would do in exchange for her help, and Mr. DuShane said he would dismiss his
lawsuit and grievances. Id. The next week, Dr. Osborn agreed to help him get
into the program. Id. In September, Mr. DuShane learned he was not
approved for the program in Lexington. Id. at 35. However, he was approved
for his second-choice program and was placed on the waitlist. Id.
3. Mr. DuShane's self-harm and requests to meet with
psychology staff
Throughout a period spanning from the beginning of 2021 to the end of
2022, Mr. DuShane would contact or attempt to contact the psychology team,
sometimes multiple times per day, requesting to be seen and expressing that
he needed help or was in crisis and considering harming himself. See id. at 4-
5, 6, 7, 10, 25, 29, 31, 33-34. At times, Mr. DuShane would ask the chaplain,

officers, or other inmates to contact psychology for him, after the psychology
team did not respond to his own requests to be seen. See id. at 4-5, 6, 7, 22-
23, 29, 30, 31-32, 33-34. Mr. DuShane would frequently not hear back from
the psychology team in response to these requests. See id. at 4-5, 7, 10, 22-
23. During this period, Mr. DuShane self-harmed by cutting himself with a
razor on more than twenty occasions. See id. at 7, 12, 22-23, 25, 27, 30, 34-
38, 40. These occasions included incidents where Mr. DuShane cut himself
sixty times in one day, id. at 7, over eighty times in one day, id. at 27, and once
where he cut himself twenty times, passed out from the bleeding, and received

stitches in the hospital. Id. at 22-23. On one occasion, Mr. DuShane
informed Dr. McCarthy that he was going to harm himself when he returned to
his housing unit. Id. at 39. Dr. McCarthy told him that it was his choice. Id.
Mr. DuShane was also placed on suicide watch several different times. Id. at 7,
10, 16, 23, 26, 32, 35.
4. Email to Warden Kallis
In November, Mr. DuShane emailed with Warden Kallis regarding his
care. Id. at 37. Warden Kallis "mirrored or had Psychology staff respond."3 Id.
He also emailed asking to see someone on separate occasions. Id.

C. Mr. DuShane's Tort Claims
Between December 2019 and December 2022, Mr. DuShane filed
fourteen tort claims regarding his mental health treatment. Dkt. 52-1 at 2.
Those claims cover the following allegations:
1. On December 1, 2021, Mr. DuShane reported to Psychology that he felt
unstable because of medication prescribed to him by a non-party. On

December 4, he was found in a pool of blood after having cut his arm in
an attempted suicide. Dkt. 52-4 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2022-04290).4

3 Mr. DuShane does not explain what he means by "mirrored."
4 Mr. DuShane submitted duplicate claims covering these facts in TRT-NCR-2022-
06741 and TRT-NCR-2023-00467. Dkts. 52-10, 52-11.
2. On March 23, 2021, Dr. Davis falsified Mr. DuShane's records and
reduced his care level. Dkt. 52-5 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2022-06736).5
3. On April 7, 2021, Mr. DuShane emailed Dr. Osborn asking to be seen,

but she did not respond. Mr. DuShane then harmed himself twelve
times. Dkt. 52-6 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2022-06737).
4. On May 6, 2021, Mr. DuShane asked Psychology to help and had officers
call them for him. When no one responded, he cut himself. He also
asked Dr. Osborn to get him medical attention but she refused. Dkt. 52-
7 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2022-06738).
5. On June 4, 2021, Mr. DuShane emailed Psychology and had officers call
them, stating he was in crisis and needed to be seen immediately. Drs.

Osborn and Myers stated they were busy. After an inmate told Mr.
DuShane no one else was at Psychology, he cut himself sixty times. Dkt.
52-8 at 1. (TRT-NCR-2022-06739).
6. Mr. DuShane had an inappropriate relationship with Dr. Vigil. He
reported it to Drs. Davis, Myers, Sacchetti, and Osborn to seek
counseling. However, between September 2020 and August 12, 2022,
they told him to stop talking about the relationship and that it was
wrong to speak inappropriately about staff. As a result, he harmed

5 This claim also states Dr. Davis retaliated against Mr. DuShane. However, all
retaliation claims were dismissed at screening. Dkt. 24. Accordingly, his claim in
TRT-NCR-2022-06740, which states he was issued a stalking memo in retaliation for
submitting grievances, is also not issue in this matter. Dkt. 52-9.
himself and was placed on suicide watch many times. Dkt. 52-12 at 1
(TRT-NCR-2023-00468).
7. In March 2022, Dr. Osborn made an agreement with Mr. DuShane that

she would get him into a specific program if he withdrew his lawsuit
against her and her colleagues. After Mr. DuShane did so, Dr. Osborn
did not follow through on her promise before ending her employment at
the facility. Dkt. 52-13 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2023-00469).
8. On an unknown date, Mr. DuShane emailed Psychology asking to be
seen and had officers call, as well, stating he was in crisis. Drs. Vigil,
Myers, and Osborn did not respond and Mr. DuShane cut himself. Dkt.
52-14 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2023-00470).

9. Between March 2021 and August 2022, the Bureau of Prisons ("BOP")
forced Mr. DuShane to be seen by Dr. Osborn despite his repeated
requests for a new psychologist. During that time, Dr. Osborn was
mentally abusive, failed to provide treatment, was demeaning, lied to Mr.
DuShane, showed very little skills as a therapist, and failed to follow
policy. Dkt. 52-15 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2023-00997).
10. On August 17, 2022, Mr. DuShane emailed Psychology twice stating he
was in crisis and needed to be seen. He also sent a note and asked

officers to contact them. Drs. Hughes, McCarthy, Sacchetti, and Osborn
told one of the officers they were busy and that Mr. DuShane should use
his skills. Dkt. 52-16 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2023-00998).
11. On November 22, 2022, Mr. DuShane told Dr. McCarthy he was in crisis
and was going to cut himself. She told him that was his choice and sent
him to his housing unit. He later emailed her that he was in crisis and

going to harm himself, but she did not care. He then cut himself sixty
times. Dkt. 52-17 at 1 (TRT-NCR-2023-02424).
BOP mailed final denial letters prior to the filing of this lawsuit in all but
two of Mr. DuShane's claims – TRT-NCR-2023-00469 and TRT-NCR-2023-
02424, regarding Dr. Osborn's deal to get Mr. DuShane into a program and the
events of November 22, 2022, respectively. Dkt. 52-1 at 6.
D. Claims in this case
Mr. DuShane's complaint is 41 pages long with 255 paragraphs and

chronicles events occurring over the course of two years. Dkt. 1. The Court
screened the complaint, allowing the following claims to proceed: (1) claims for
damages against the Individual Medical Defendants and Warden Kallis based
on allegations that they were deliberately indifferent to his serious medical
conditions; and (2) FTCA claims for negligence and intentional infliction of
emotional distress against the United States. Dkt. 24.
III.
Discussion
The United States has moved for partial summary judgment, arguing
that Mr. DuShane did not exhaust available administrative remedies. The
individual defendants have moved to dismiss Mr. DuShane's constitutional
claims, arguing that the complaint fails to state a claim pursuant to Bivens.6
A. Failure to Exhaust Administrative Remedies

On a motion for summary judgment, "[t]he applicable substantive law
will dictate which facts are material." National Soffit & Escutcheons, Inc., v.
Superior Sys., Inc., 98 F.3d 262, 265 (7th Cir. 1996) (citing Anderson v Liberty
Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 247). The substantive law applicable to this motion
for summary judgment is the FTCA. 28 U.S.C. § 1346.
The United States cannot be sued without its consent. See United States
v. Sherwood, 312 U.S. 584, 586 (1941). The FTCA creates a limited waiver of
this immunity by permitting suits against the United States for certain

personal injuries caused by federal employees. 28 U.S.C. § 1346(b)(1). The
FTCA provides:
An action shall not be instituted upon a claim against the United
States for money damages for injury . . . or personal injury . . .
caused by the negligent or wrongful act or omission of any employee
of the Government . . . unless the claimant shall have first presented
the claim to the appropriate Federal agency and his claim shall have
been finally denied by the agency in writing.
28 U.S.C. § 2675(a).
The Supreme Court has interpreted § 2675(a) as "requir[ing] complete
exhaustion of Executive remedies before invocation of the judicial process."
6 The individual defendants additionally argue that Mr. DuShane fails to state a claim
for deliberate indifference against Defendants Drs. Vigil, Sacchetti, Hughes, Davis, and
Warden Kallis, and that claims against Drs. Vigil and Sacchetti are time-barred. Dkt.
56 at 1-2. The Court does not reach these claims, as it decides this matter on Bivens
grounds.
McNeil v. United States, 508 U.S. 106, 112 (1993). Under 28 U.S.C. § 2401(b),
"a claimant must present his claims to the appropriate agency within two years
of the date that the claims accrue." Augutis v. United States, 732 F.3d 749,

752 (7th Cir. 2013).
The United States argues that allegations arising from two claims were
not properly exhausted: TRT-NCR-2023-00469 and TRT-NCR-2023-02424.
Dkt. 53 at 10. Mr. DuShane concedes the allegations arising from the facts in
those two claims were not properly exhausted. Dkt. 62 at 2. Consequently,
the parties agree those allegations should be dismissed without prejudice.
Dkts. 62 at 2, 65 at 3. Accordingly, the United States is entitled to summary
judgment regarding Mr. DuShane's claims relating to:

(1) his agreement with Dr. Osborn to withdraw his lawsuit in exchange
for entrance into a program in Lexington; and
(2) the November 22, 2022, incident when Mr. DuShane cut himself sixty
times after having told Dr. McCarthy that he was in crisis and going to self-
harm. Dkts. 52-13, 52-17. Those claims are dismissed without prejudice for
failure to exhaust administrative remedies.7

7 The United States also generally argues that allegations which are not encompassed
by properly exhausted tort claims are not exhausted, but does not identify any such
allegations. Dkt. 53 at 11. Accordingly, to the extent the United States seeks
summary judgment regarding unspecified claims, it is denied.
B. Failure to State a Bivens Claim
There is no Congressional authority to award damages against federal
officials who violate the Constitution while acting under color of federal law.

See Ziglar v. Abbasi, 582 U.S. 120, 133-34 (2017).
Over fifty years ago, the Supreme Court held in Bivens v. Six Unknown
Fed. Narcotics Agents, 403 U.S. 388, 397 (1971) that district courts have the
implied authority to award damages against federal officials for unreasonable
searches and seizures in violation of the Fourth Amendment. That implied
authority was subsequently extended twice: first, to actions alleging gender
discrimination in federal employment in violation of the Fifth Amendment,
Davis v. Passman, 442 U.S. 228, 248 (1979); and second, to actions alleging

deliberate indifference to a prisoner's serious medical needs in violation of the
Eighth Amendment, Carlson v. Green, 446 U.S. 14, 17 (1980). But these "three
cases—Bivens, Davis, and Carlson—represent the only instances in which the
Court has approved of an implied damages remedy under the Constitution
itself." Ziglar, 582 U.S. at 131.
Over the past four decades, the Court has "declined 11 times to imply a
similar cause of action for other alleged constitutional violations." Egbert v.
Boule, 596 U.S. 482, 486 (2022) (listing cases). Furthermore, considering "the

Constitution's separation of legislative and judicial power," the Court has
"emphasized that recognizing a cause of action under Bivens is a 'disfavored
judicial activity.'" Id. at 491 (quoting Ziglar, 582 U.S. at 135).
To determine whether a Bivens remedy is available to a plaintiff suing a
federal actor, the Court makes a two-step inquiry. First, it asks whether the
claim presents a new Bivens context by determining whether "the case is

different in a meaningful way from previous Bivens cases decided by [the
Supreme Court]." Ziglar, 582 U.S. at 139. "The Court has identified some
differences that qualify as 'meaningful':
the rank of the officers involved; the constitutional right at issue; the
generality or specificity of the official action; the extent of judicial
guidance as to how an officer should respond to the problem or
emergency to be confronted; the statutory or other legal mandate under
which the officer was operating; the risk of disruptive intrusion by the
Judiciary into the functioning of other branches; or the presence of
potential special factors that previous Bivens cases did not consider.
Snowden v. Henning, 72 F.4th 237, 242 (7th Cir. 2023) (quoting Abbasi, 582
U.S. at 140). Put differently, "a difference is 'meaningful' if it might alter the
policy balance that initially justified the causes of action recognized in Bivens,
Davis, and Carlson. If a case involves facts or legal issues that would require
reweighing the costs and benefits of a damages remedy against federal officials,
then the difference is “meaningful” because we risk further encroachment on
the legislative function rather than simply applying controlling Supreme Court
precedent." Snowden, 72 F.4th at 244.
Second, if the claim presents a new Bivens context, the Court then asks
whether there are any special factors that counsel hesitation about extending a
damages remedy to the new context. Egbert, 596 U.S. at 492. In applying the
second factor, a district court "faces only one question: whether there is any
rational reason (even one) to think that Congress is better suited to weigh the
costs and benefits of allowing a damages action to proceed." Id. at 496
(emphasis in original) (quoting Ziglar, 582 U.S. at 136). Additionally, "a court

may not fashion a Bivens remedy if Congress already has provided, or has
authorized the Executive to provide, 'an alternative remedial structure.'" Id. at
493 (quoting Ziglar, 582 U.S. at 137). And this is true even if the individual
plaintiff alleges he does not have access to the alternative remedy. Id. at 498
("whether a given remedy is adequate is a legislative determination that must
be left to Congress, not the federal courts").
1. New Bivens Context
Mr. DuShane's claims present a new context for Bivens remedy

purposes. Carlson is the closest possible analogy since that case also involved
Eighth Amendment claims of deliberate indifference to serious medical
conditions against prison officials. But the facts here are sufficiently different
that permitting the claims against the individual defendants to proceed would
be applying Bivens in a new context. Dkt. 67 at 5-9 (comparing in detail the
facts in Carlson to the facts presented by Mr. DuShane's claims).
Carlson involved allegations that prison officials kept the prisoner in the
prison facility after the prisoner had an asthmatic attack despite knowing "of

the gross inadequacy of medical facilities and staff" at the prison. See Carlson,
446 U.S. at 16 n.1. Defendants kept the prisoner in the facility against the
advice of doctors, "administered contra-indicated drugs which made his attack
more severe, attempted to use a respirator known to be inoperative which
further impeded his breathing, and delayed for too long a time his transfer to
an outside hospital." Id. These acts and omissions, the complaint alleged,
resulted in the prisoner's death. Id. Finally, the complaint in Carlson also

alleged that the defendants' deliberate indifference "was in part attributable to
racial prejudice." Id.
Here, the gist of Mr. DuShane's claims is that defendants failed to
provide him adequate mental health care over the course of two years. Unlike
in Carlson, where the underlying factual allegations were relatively simple and
straightforward, Mr. DuShane challenges numerous discretionary decisions of
multiple psychologists related to treatment of ongoing mental health issues,
rather than specific actions taken during a single life-threatening medical

emergency. Dkt. 67 at 6-7. This is not sufficiently parallel to Carlson to allow
for a Bivens remedy. See Snowden, 72 F.4th at 243 ("a Bivens claim may
present a new context 'even if it is based on the same constitutional provision
as a claim in a case in which a damages remedy was previously recognized.'")
(citation omitted). These differences are meaningful as they might require
reweighing the costs and benefits of a damages remedy against federal officials
and alter the policy balance that initially justified the causes of action
recognized in Bivens, Davis, and Carlson. Snowden, 72 F.4th at 244.

2. Special Factors Counseling Hesitation
Because Plaintiff's claim presents a new Bivens context, the Court now
proceeds to the special factors analysis. The FTCA allows for recovery of
damages against the United States under certain circumstances where federal
agents, including prison officials, commit a state-law tort against an inmate.
28 U.S.C. § 1346(b)(1). Indeed, Mr. DuShane is proceeding in this action with
FTCA claims against the United States. The Court concludes that Congress

has established an alternative remedial structure for claims such as Mr.
DuShane's, so expansion of a Bivens remedy in this context would be
inappropriate. Egbert, 596 U.S. at 493 (citing Ziglar, 582 U.S. at 137).
Therefore, his constitutional claims against the individual defendants are
dismissed for failure to state a claim.
IV.
Conclusion
The individual defendants' motion to dismiss Mr. DuShane's
constitutional claims, dkt. [55], is GRANTED. Defendant United States's
motion for partial summary judgement for failure to exhaust, dkt. [52], is
GRANTED as to the allegations arising out of Mr. DuShane's tort claims in
TRT-NCR-2023-00469 and TRT-NCR-2023-02424 and DENIED in all other
aspects.

The clerk is directed to change the spelling of "Secchetti" to "Sacchetti"

The clerk is directed to terminate Defendants Nicole Osborn, M. Myers,
L. Davis, B. Vigil, Hughes, Sacchetti, S. Kallis, and F. McCarthy from the
caption.
No partial judgment will issue at this time.
