IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
TALLAHASSEE DIVISION

DAVID TERRENCE STEPHENS,
Plaintiff,
v.

CASE NO. 4:17cv148-RH/GRJ

JOHNSON et al.,
Defendants.
_____________________________/
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This case is before the court on the magistrate judge’s report and
recommendation, ECF No. 15, and the objections, ECF No. 18. I have reviewed de
novo the issues raised by the objections.
As noted in the report and recommendation, the plaintiff has at least three
“strikes” under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) and has not adequately alleged facts indicating
that he is in imminent danger of serious physical injury. The plaintiff therefore
cannot proceed in forma pauperis. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED:

Case No. 4:17cv148-RH/GRJ
