ORDER ADOPTING RECOMMENDATION OF THE
UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Blackburn, J.
The matter before me is the recommendation contained in the Order and
Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge [#49],1 filed April 7, 2015. No
objection having been timely filed to the recommendation, I review it for plain error only.
See Morales-Fernandez v. Immigration & Naturalization Service, 418 F.3d 1116,
1122 (10th Cir. 2005). Finding no such error in the magistrate judge’s recommended
disposition, I find and conclude that the recommendation should be approved and
adopted.

1. That the recommendation contained in the Order and Recommendation of
United States Magistrate Judge [#49], filed April 7, 2015, is approved and adopted as
an order of this court;

Complaint [#47], filed April 6, 2015, is granted;
3. That the proposed Second Amended Complaint for Damages, Declaratory
Judgment, and Other Relief [#47-2] and its attendant exhibits [##47-3 – 47-8] are
accepted for filing; and
4. That paragraph 4 of the court’s Order Overruling Objections to and
Adopting Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge [#46], filed March
25, 2015, is vacated, and the following language substituted therefore:

shall enter on behalf of defendants against plaintiffs Big Cats
of Serenity Springs, Inc., doing business as Serenity Springs
Wildlife Center, Julie Walker, and Jules Investment, Inc., as
to the Third and Fourth Claims for Relief asserted in the
Complaint for Damages, Declaratory Judgment, and
Other Relief [#1], filed December 4, 2013.
