Filing 49

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
PINE BLUFF DIVISION
JAMES EDWARD GREEN, JR.,
ADC #113001
v.

PETITIONER

Case No. 5:14-cv-00009-KGB/HDY

RAY HOBBS, Director of the
Arkansas Department of Correction

RESPONDENT
ORDER

The Court has received the Findings and Recommendation from Magistrate Judge H.
David Young (Dkt. No. 16). In response, petitioner James Edward Green, Jr., filed an objection
(Dkt. No. 18) and a statement of necessity (Dkt. No. 19). On February 21, 2014, Mr. Green also
filed a “motion for ‘reconsideration’ of denial for a ‘preliminary injunction’ and ‘restraining’
order” (Dkt. No. 26). The Court construes this as a second objection to the Findings and
Recommendation. After a careful review of the Findings and Recommendation, the timely
objection and statement of necessity received thereto, and a de novo review of the record,
including Mr. Green’s untimely objection, the Court concludes that the Findings and
Recommendation should be, and hereby are, approved and adopted in their entirety as this
Court’s findings in all respects. The Court determines no evidentiary hearing is necessary. The
Court denies the motion for preliminary injunction and/or temporary restraining order filed by
Mr. Green (Dkt. No. 7).
SO ORDERED this the 8th day of May, 2014.
