ORDER AFFIRMING RECOMMENDED DECISION
OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On November 30, 2011, the United States Magistrate Judge filed with the
court, with copies to the parties, her Recommended Decision. The plaintiff filed
an objection to the Recommended Decision on December 19, 2011, and a
supplemental objection on December 29, 2011. I have reviewed and considered
the Recommended Decision, together with the entire record; I have made a de
novo determination of all matters adjudicated by the Recommended Decision; and
I concur with the recommendations of the United States Magistrate Judge for the
reasons set forth in the Recommended Decision, and determine that no further
proceeding is necessary and that oral argument would not be helpful.
It is therefore ORDERED that the Recommended Decision of the Magistrate
Judge is hereby ADOPTED. The defendant’s motion to dismiss is GRANTED and the
Amended Complaint is DISMISSED as moot.
SO ORDERED.
DATED THIS 13TH DAY OF JANUARY, 2012
