ORDER
THIS CAUSE came on for consideration upon the Report and Recommendation
submitted by Magistrate Judge Julie S. Sneed (Dkt. #3). The Court notes that neither party
filed written objections to the Report and Recommendation and the time for filing such
objections has elapsed.
After careful consideration of the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate
Judge in conjunction with an independent examination of the file, the Court is of the
opinion that the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation should be adopted,
confirmed, and approved in all respects.
ACCORDINGLY, it is therefore, ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:
1.
The Report and Recommendation (Dkt. #3) of the Magistrate Judge is
adopted, confirmed, and approved in all respects and is made a part of this order for all
purposes, including appellate review.
2.
Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to Proceed in Forma Pauperis (Dkt. #2) is
DENIED without prejudice.
3.
Plaintiff’s Complaint (Dkt. #1) is DISMISSED without prejudice and with
leave to file an amended complaint that complies with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
See Bryant v. Dupree, 252 F.3d 1161, 1163 (11th Cir. 2001) (“Generally, where a more
carefully drafted complaint might state a claim, a plaintiff must be given at least one chance
to amend the complaint before the district court dismisses the action with prejudice.”)
(internal quotation and citation omitted).

4.
Should Plaintiff wish to file an amended complaint, it shall be filed within

5.
Failure to file an amended complaint within the allotted time period shall
result in the dismissal of this case without further notice.
DONE and ORDERED in Tampa, Florida, this 7th day of November, 2016.
