Case No. 7:16-cv-01306-KOB-TMP

MEMORANDUM OPINION
The magistrate judge filed a report on January 13, 2017, recommending this
action be dismissed without prejudice, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1), for
failing to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. (Doc. 6). Although the
magistrate judge advised the plaintiff of his right to file specific written objections
within fourteen days, and granted an extension to February 14, 2017, he has filed
no objections.
Having carefully reviewed and considered de novo all the materials in the
court file, including the report and recommendation, the court ADOPTS the
magistrate judge’s report and ACCEPTS his recommendation.

Therefore, in

accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1), the court finds that this action is due to
be dismissed without prejudice for failing to state a claim upon which relief can be
granted.

The court will enter a separate Final Order.
DONE and ORDERED this 27th day of February, 2017.
