CASE NO. 5:17-CV-36(MTT)

ORDER
United States Magistrate Judge Charles H. Weigle recommends denying the
Plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary injunction (Doc. 25) because the Plaintiff has failed to
satisfy the necessary prerequisites for the Court to issue such a drastic remedy. Doc.
28. The Plaintiff has not objected.1 The Court has reviewed the Recommendation, and
the Court accepts and adopts the findings, conclusions, and recommendations of the
Magistrate Judge. Accordingly, the Recommendation (Doc. 28) is ADOPTED and
made the order of this Court, and the Plaintiff’s motion (Doc. 25) is DENIED.
SO ORDERED, this 30th day of May, 2018.
S/ Marc T. Treadwell
MARC T. TREADWELL, JUDGE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

1
On April 16, 2018, the same day the Magistrate Judge filed the Recommendation (Doc. 28), the Court
received the Plaintiff’s reply to the Defendants’ response (Doc. 27) to his motion, which obviously the
Magistrate Judge could not have seen before issuing his Recommendation. Doc. 29. However,
regardless of whether or not the Court considers the Plaintiff’s reply, the Plaintiff’s motion must be denied
for the reasons articulated in the Recommendation (Doc. 28).
