Case No. 2:16-cv-00648-KOB-TMP

MEMORANDUM OPINION
The magistrate judge filed a report on September 19, 2018, recommending
the defendants’ special report be treated as a motion for summary judgment and
further recommending that the motion be granted. (Doc. 22). Although the parties
were advised of their right to file specific written objections within fourteen days,
the court received no objections.
Having carefully reviewed and considered de novo all the materials in the
court file, including the report and recommendation, the court hereby ADOPTS
the magistrate judge’s report and ACCEPTS his recommendation. Accordingly,
the court finds that the defendants’ motion for summary judgment should be
GRANTED because no genuine issues of material fact exist.
The court will enter a separate Final Order.

DONE and ORDERED this 29th day of October, 2018.
