MEMORANDUM
FREDERICK MOTZ, District Judge.
Defendant Nancy Bealer has filed a renewed motion for summary judgment. The motion will be granted.1 Plaintiff's claim against Bealer is that she was recklessly indifferent to a serious medical need that he had by failing to properly process a grievance he filed. However, as this court has held, no constitutional right is implicated by the manner in which a grievance is processed. See Carrero-Vasquez v. Linn, No. RDB 13-552, 2014 WL 183819, at *3 (D. Md. Jan 10, 2014). Moreover, I now conclude that there is not evidence that Bealer failed to conduct an adequate investigation.
A separate order granting Bealer's renewed motion for summary judgment is being entered herewith.
FootNotes
1. In this opposition to the motion, plaintiff relies heavily upon the fact that this court previously denied Bealer's motion for summary judgment. However, it is well-established that a district court may reconsider any ruling it made on a summary judgment motion until a final judgment is entered. See Lynn v. Monarch Recovery Mgmt. Inc. 953 F.Supp.2d 612, 619 (D. Md. 2013).
