CASE NO. 1:11-cv-866-MEF
ORDER
This case is before the Court on a Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (Doc. #
7) to dismiss Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint (Doc. # 6) prior to service of process, pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. Plaintiff has filed a timely Objection. (Doc. # 8.) The Court reviews
de novo the portion of the Recommendation to which the Objection applies. 28 U.S.C. §
636(b)(1).
As it is with Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint, Plaintiff’s Objection contains the barest
of conclusory allegations: “YOUR HONOR, . . . but fraud is fraud.” (Objection 1.)
Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint fails to meet the pleading standards under Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure 8 and 9. After a review of the Recommendation and the Objection, it is
ORDERED that the Recommendation (Doc. # 7) is ADOPTED and the Objection (Doc. #
8) OVERRULED. An appropriate final judgment will be entered.
th
DONE this the 7 day of March, 2012.
