2d 1443
Debra Noland appeals from the district court's order dismissing her civil action
for injunctive relief against the warden and medical personnel at Alderson
Federal Correctional Institution where she is presently incarcerated. Noland,
who suffers from a serious seizure disorder and other medical problems, sought
injunctive relief from the Defendants' alleged failure to provide her with
adequate medical care. The district court, adopting the magistrate judge's
Report and Recommendation,1 dismissed this action for Noland's failure to
exhaust administrative remedies. We affirm as modified.
We therefore affirm the district court's dismissal of this action for failure to
exhaust administrative remedies, but modify the court's judgment to state that
the dismissal is without prejudice to allow for the possibility of refiling this
action, if and when the administrative process is completed. See Terrell v.
Brewer, 935 F.2d 1015, 1019 (9th Cir. 1991); Greene v. Meese, 875 F.2d 639,
643 (7th Cir. 1989). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED AS MODIFIED
