ORDER
The Court has received proposed findings and recommendations (Doc. 17) from Chief United
States Magistrate Judge James R. Marschewski. There have been no objections.1 After careful
review, the Court concludes that the findings and recommendations should be, and hereby are,
approved and adopted as this Court’s findings in all respects in their entirety.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Defendants’ motion to dismiss (Doc. 9) is GRANTED,
and Plaintiff’s Complaint is dismissed with prejudice as it is frivolous and fails to state a claim upon
which relief may be granted.
The Clerk is directed to place a § 1915(g) strike flag on the case.
Judgment will be entered accordingly.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 13th day of December, 2013.
