MEMORANDUM OF OPINION
The magistrate judge filed a report on February 1, 2016, recommending the plaintiff's motion
for summary judgment (doc. 61) be denied. The magistrate judge further recommended that the
defendants' special report, construed as a motion for summary judgment, be granted and this action
dismissed with prejudice. (Doc. 72). The time to file objections to the report and recommendation
has expired. No objections have been filed.
Having carefully reviewed and considered de novo all the materials in the court file,
including the report and recommendation, the magistrate judge's report is hereby ADOPTED and the
recommendation is ACCEPTED. The court EXPRESSLY FINDS that there are no genuine issues
of material fact and the defendants are entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Accordingly, the
plaintiff's motion for summary judgment is due to be denied. Furthermore, the defendants' motion
for summary judgment is due to be granted, and this action is due to be dismissed with prejudice.
A Final Judgment will be entered.
DATED this 22nd day of February, 2016.
