OPINION
Plaintiff filed this lawsuit asserting, among other
things,

retaliation

and

gender

discrimination,

in

violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981a, and 2000e through 2000e-17.
This lawsuit is now before the court on the recommendation
of the United States Magistrate Judge that plaintiff’s
motion for default judgment and summary judgment should be
denied and that defendants’ motion for summary judgment
should be granted.

Also before the court are plaintiff’s

objections to the recommendation.

After an independent

and de novo review of the record, the court concludes that

plaintiff’s

objections

should

be

overruled

and

magistrate judge’s recommendation adopted.
An appropriate judgment will be entered.
DONE, this the 21st day of November, 2013.
/s/ Myron H. Thompson
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
