ORDER
This cause is before the Court on the Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Doc. No. 14)
filed on February 1, 2012.
The United States Magistrate Judge has submitted a report recommending that the Motion
be denied and the Amended Complaint be dismissed.
After an independent de novo review of the record in this matter, and noting that no
objections were timely filed, the Court agrees entirely with the findings of fact and conclusions of
law in the Report and Recommendation.
Therefore, it is ORDERED as follows:

1.

The Report and Recommendation filed February 8, 2012 (Doc. No. 16) is

ADOPTED and CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order.
2.

The Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Doc. No. 14) is DENIED.

3.

The Amended Complaint is hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

4.

Plaintiff is given leave to file a Second Amended Complaint which states a viable

cause of action by March 20, 2012. The Complaint shall be accompanied with either the filing fee
or a completed Affidavit for pauper status. Failure to comply with this Order shall result in
dismissal of this action for lack of prosecution, without further notice.
DONE and ORDERED in Chambers, in Orlando, Florida on February 29, 2012.
