   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-2838
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Pine Bluff   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Gruender and Benton, Circuit
   Judges]
   Civil case - Civil rights. Because plaintiff's initial complaint against the
   defendants was silent as to whether he was suing them in their individual
   capacities, the initial suit stated only an official capacity claim; as a
   result, for statute of limitations purposes, the individual capacity claims
   were raised for the first time in the second complaint and were time
   barred; official capacity claims were barred by the doctrine of res judicata
   as the issues raised in the claims had been resolved in the judgment
   granted in the first suit; district court did not err in dismissing pendent
   state claims with prejudice. Judge Gruender, concurring in part and
   dissenting in part.
