In the Report and
Recommendation, Magistrate Judge Pizzo recommends that: (1) Pinellas Suncoast Transit
Authority’s and Jolley Trolley’s motions to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction (Docs.
59, 60) be GRANTED; and (2) First Transit’s motion for preliminary injunction (Doc. 62) be
DENIED. All parties were furnished copies of the Report and Recommendation and were afforded
the opportunity to file objections pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). No such objections were filed.
Upon consideration of the Report and Recommendation, and upon this Court's independent
examination of the file, it is determined that the Report and Recommendation should be adopted.
Accordingly, it is now
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:
(1)
The Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (Doc. 83) is adopted,
confirmed, and approved in all respects and is made a part of this Order for all
purposes, including appellate review.
(2)
Defendant, Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority’s Motion to Dismiss Amended
Complaint (Doc. 59) is GRANTED, as the Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction

Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint (Doc. 60) is GRANTED, as the Court lacks subject
matter jurisdiction over Plaintiff’s claims.

DENIED.
(5)
The Clerk is directed to terminate all pending motions and deadlines and close this
