1Opinion of the Court

WALTER, District Judge:

Defendants Owens, Trevino and Bridwell-Oglesby appeal the denial of their motions for summary judgment based upon qualified immunity. Plaintiff-Appellee has failed to state a claim for or tender evidence of a constitutional violation against Defendant Appellant Owens and we reverse and order dismissal of Plaintiffs claims against Owens with prejudice. Plaintiff-Appellee has stated a proper claim against Defendants-Appellants Trevino and Bridwell-Oglesby; a genuine dispute as to material facts remains. Therefore, we dismiss the appeal as to those defendants.
