MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter comes before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (“Report”) (Doc.
86) of Magistrate Judge Stephen C. Williams recommending that the Court deny as moot plaintiff
Willis Baird’s motion for a preliminary injunction or temporary restraining order (Doc. 38) in light
of his release from the custody of the Illinois Department of Corrections.
The Court may accept, reject or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or
recommendations of the magistrate judge in a report and recommendation. Fed. R. Civ. P.
72(b)(3). The Court must review de novo the portions of the report to which objections are made.
Id. “If no objection or only partial objection is made, the district court judge reviews those
unobjected portions for clear error.” Johnson v. Zema Sys. Corp., 170 F.3d 734, 739 (7th Cir.
1999).
The Court has received no objection to the Report. The Court has reviewed the entire file

and finds that the Report is not clearly erroneous. Accordingly, the Court hereby:


ADOPTS the Report in its entirety (Doc. 86); and



DENIES Baird’s motion for a preliminary injunction or temporary restraining order (Doc.
38).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
DATED: May 7, 2015
