CASE NO. 3:15-CV-476-WKW

ORDER
On March 8, 2016, the Magistrate Judge filed a Recommendation (Doc. # 35)
to which Defendant David M. Warren timely filed objections (Doc. # 36). The court
has conducted an independent and de novo review of those portions of the
Recommendation to which objections are made, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The
court concludes that the objections are without merit and that the Magistrate Judge’s
Recommendation is due to be adopted.

Accordingly, it is ORDERED that:
(1)

Defendant’s objections (Doc. # 36) are OVERRULED;

(2)

The Recommendation (Doc. # 35) is ADOPTED;

(3)

Defendant Warren’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. # 31) is DENIED in its

entirety.
This action is REFERRED back to the Magistrate Judge for further
proceedings.
DONE this 18th day of May, 2016.
/s/ W. Keith Watkins
CHIEF UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
