CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:12-CV-15 (MTT)

ORDER
This matter is before the Court on the Recommendation of United States
Magistrate Judge Charles H. Weigle. (Doc. 196). The Magistrate Judge recommends
granting the Defendants’ motion for summary judgment (Doc. 174) because the Plaintiff
has presented insufficient evidence to create a genuine dispute as to any material fact
and the Defendants are entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
The Plaintiff has objected to the Recommendation. (Docs. 197, 198). Pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), the Court has considered the Plaintiff’s objection and made a
de novo determination of the portions of the Recommendation to which the Plaintiff
objects.
The Recommendation is ADOPTED and made the ORDER of the Court. The
Defendants’ motion for summary judgment is GRANTED.
SO ORDERED, this 28th day of February, 2014.

MARC T. TREADWELL, JUDGE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
