(“We hold that neither a State nor its officials acting in their official capacities are ‘persons' under § 1983.”); Garvin v. Owen, No. 2:09-cv-0202-HMH-RSC, 2009 WL 653007, at *4 (D.S.C. Mar. 12, 2009) (holding that Aiken County and Aiken City are not “persons” under § 1983), aff'd, 340 Fed.Appx. 169 (4th Cir. 2009).
The City of Greer is also not a person and cannot be sued under § 1983. See Garvin v. Owen, No. 2:09-cv-0202-HMH-RSC, 2009 WL 653007, at *4 (D.S.C. Mar. 12, 2009), aff'd, 340 Fed.Appx. 169 (4th Cir. 2009).
RCI is not a proper person subject to suit under § 1983 and Rhoden has failed to identify any specific individuals in support of his claim. Harden v, Green, No. 01-6393, 2001 WL 1464468, at *4 (4th Cir. Nov. 19, 2001) (per curiam); Garvin v. Owen, C.A. No. 2:09-202-HMH-RSC, 2009 WL 653007, at *4 (D.S.C. Mar. 12, 2009) (unpublished). As a result, Rhoden's objection is without merit.
