Case No. 2:09-cv-1089-MEF

(WO-DO NOT PUBLISH)

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Upon consideration of the Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (Doc. # 33)
and the Plaintiff’s Objections to that recommendation (Doc. # 34), the Court does not
believe that the Plaintiff has met the criteria for obtaining a preliminary injunction.
Specifically, the Plaintiff has failed to demonstrate (1) a substantial likelihood of success
on the merits; (2) a substantial threat of irreparable injury; (3) that the threatened injury
outweighs the potential damage to the non-moving party; and (4) that the injunction
would not be adverse to the public interest. See Palmer v. Braun, 287 F.3d 1325, 1329
(11th Cir. 2002).
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the Recommendation of the Magistrate
is ADOPTED (Doc. # 33) and the Plaintiff’s Objections are OVERRULED (Doc. # 34).
th

Done this the 29 day of July, 2011.

/s/ Mark E. Fuller
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
