KARL BYRD, et al.

DEFENDANTS

ORDER
The Court has received the Recommended Disposition from Magistrate Judge Beth Deere
(Doc. No. 149). While neither party filed any objections, on November 2, 2011, the Plaintiff asked
that his case be held in abeyance so that he could obtain sworn witness statements.1 On November
9, 2011, I entered an order granting Plaintiff an additional two weeks to obtain sworn witness
statements and file objections.2 During these two weeks, Plaintiff has failed to file any objections
or provide any witness statements.
After careful review of the recommendation, the Court concludes that the Recommended
Disposition should be, and hereby is, approved and adopted as this Court’s findings in all respects.
Mr. Pickard’s claims are DISMISSED without prejudice. All pending motions are
denied as moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 28th day of November, 2011.
