Jung denies the Department of Corrections food service provider's motion to dismiss the diabetic inmate's suit alleging that it has consistently failed to provide diabetic inmates with timely, adequate meals. The inmate has adequately pleaded that the alleged failure to provide meals constitutes deliberate indifference to a serious medical need, and while he has not stated sufficient facts to show that the food service provider has a policy of serving diabetic inmates late, he has pleaded sufficient facts to support the allegation that the meals are calorically and nutritionally deficient. Finally, the prisoner's amended complaint states facts showing the personal involvement of a staff member who responded to the prisoner's grievances in these alleged violations, reviving previously-dismissed claims against that staff member, though the prisoner is cautioned that failure to prove those allegations may result in sanctions.
