MATTHEW J. THOMPSON,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 4:20cv285-MW/MAF

WARDEN R. POLK,
HAMILTON C.I. ANNEX,
Defendant.
_________________________/
ORDER ACCEPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
This Court has considered, without hearing, the Magistrate Judge's Report
and Recommendation, ECF No. 8, and has also reviewed de novo Plaintiff’s
objections to the report and recommendation, ECF No. 9. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED:
The report and recommendation is accepted and adopted, over Plaintiff’s
objections, as this Court’s opinion. The fact that Plaintiff mailed his objections in
“Legal Mail” envelope but not his amended complaint is, at best, perplexing. If
Plaintiff mails his amended complaint in the next thirty days, then this Court will
vacate this order and review the amended complaint.
The Clerk shall enter judgment stating, “This case is DISMISSED without
prejudice for failure to prosecute and failure to comply with a Court Order.” The
