ORDER AND JUDGMENT *
Before TACHA, Chief Circuit Judge, McKAY and BALDOCK, Circuit Judges.
After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this panel has
determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the
determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G).
The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.
This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the
*
doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. The court
generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order
and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.

This is a pro se state prisoner 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights appeal. Ms.
Henry-Fields filed her complaint seeking redress for numerous alleged violations
of her constitutional rights. Among other things, she alleged deliberate
indifference to her medical needs and that the conditions of confinement at
Central Oklahoma Correctional Facility pose a substantial risk to the inmate
population. The magistrate judge issued a report and recommendation detailing
each of Ms. Henry-Fields’ claims.
After consideration of Ms. Henry-Fields’ objections, the district court
adopted the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation. The district court
denied Ms. Henry-Fields’ request for class certification, granted Dominion
Defendants’ 1 Motion for Summary Judgment because Appellant failed to exhaust
administrative remedies, and dismissed the claims against Defendants
Correctional Medical Services, Inc., and Karen Costa pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) for failure to state a claim. Ms. Henry-Fields appeals to this
court.
After a thorough review of the briefs and the record, and for substantially
the same reasons set forth in the district court’s well-reasoned July 26, 2002,
The Dominion Defendants are: Dominion Correctional Services, L.L.C.,
1
Central Oklahoma Correctional Facility, Larry Fields, Calvin Burgess, Vickie
Shoecraft, Elizabeth Giddings-Stewart, Denema Merrill, Josh Johnston, Kelly
George, Dana Holden, Ken Goble, Cindy Giles, Jo Smith, Jackie Perryman, and
Robert Cartwright. See Rec., Vol. 3, Doc. 97, at 7 n.6-7.

Order adopting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, we hold that
no relief is available to Ms. Henry-Fields pursuant to § 1983.
The decision of the trial court is AFFIRMED.
