This cause is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 18) filed on

The United States Magistrate Judge has submitted a report recommending that the case
be dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and to decline to exercise supplemental
jurisdiction over the state law claims pursuant to §1367.
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 June 20, 2012 (Doc. No. 18), is
ADOPTED and CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order.
2.
This case is DISMISSED for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The Court
declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the state law claims pursuant to §1367.
3.
The Court retains jurisdiction over the issue of whether either counsel had the
authority to file the case or dismiss the case.
4.
The Combined Motion to Reopen Case and to Strike Both the Notice of
Appearance and the Unauthorized Voluntary Dismissal Filed by Attorney Gus R. Benitez, Esq.
(Doc. No. 11) is DENIED as moot.
DONE and ORDERED in Orlando, Florida on June 28, 2012.
