ORDER

After an independent and de novo review of the entire record, the undersigned concurs

with the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, (doc. 7), to which Plaintiff filed an

Objection, (doc. 8). Plaintiffs Objection is merely a reiteration of the claims he originally set
forth in his Complaint. Moreover, Plaintiff does not dispute that his Complaint is barred by res

judicata. Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation as the opinion of
the Court and OVERRULES Plaintiffs Objections. The Court DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to

enter the appropriate judgment of dismissal and to CLOSE this case.

Further, the Court

DENIES Plaintiff leave to proceed informapauperis on appeal.

SO ORDERED, this /f^day of ^^mi/AcuM.—
