ORDER
Before the court is the Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge that the court transfer
Plaintiff’s complaint to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Alabama. Doc.
3. Plaintiff has filed objections. Doc. 4. Based upon an independent and de novo review of the
Recommendation to which objection is made, 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), the court finds the
Recommendation adequately addresses and properly rejects the grounds for Plaintiff’s objections
and that the objections lack merit. Accordingly, it is ORDERED as follows:
(1) Plaintiff’s objections (Doc. 4) are OVERRULED.
(2) The Magistrate Judge’s Recommendation (Doc. 3) is adopted.
(3) This case is transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of
Alabama under 28 U.S.C. § 1404.
The Clerk of the Court is DIRECTED to take the necessary steps to effectuate the transfer
of this action.
This case is closed in this court.

Done, this 6th day of January 2021.
