ORDER
After due and proper consideration of all portions of this file deemed relevant to the

GRANTED;

Plaintiff filed a request for a copy of the docket sheet in this case and a document styled as an “objection” to the
Report and Recommendation. (Docs. 59-60, respectively). He was mailed a copy of the docket sheet on December
17, 2015. (Doc. 59, docket notes). Plaintiff’s “objection” failed to cite any specific grounds upon which his
objection is based. (Doc. 60). “Parties filing objections to a magistrate’s report and recommendation must
specifically identify those findings objected to. Frivolous, conclusive, or general objections need not be considered
by the district court.” Marsden v. Moore, 847 F.2d 1536, 1548 (11th Cir. 1988). Accordingly, Plaintiff’s objection
was not considered.

The Court converted Defendant’s Answer (Doc. 28) and Special Report (Doc. 29) to a Motion for Summary
Judgment. (Doc. 30). Doc. 57 is Defendant’s Supplemental Special Report.
