Consistent with that recommendation and 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b), THE COURT WILL DISMISS this action, WITH PREJUDICE as to Mr. Mays’ Bivens claims, and WITHOUT PREJUDICE as to any potential Federal Tort Claims Act claims, for failing to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.

A final judgment will be entered.
