ORDER AFFIRMING THE
RECOMMENDED DECISION OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
The United States Magistrate Judge filed with the Court on June 30, 2014 his
Recommended Decision (ECF No. 27). The Plaintiff filed his objections to the
Recommended Decision on July 14, 2014 (ECF No. 28). I have reviewed and considered
the Magistrate Judge’s Recommended Decision, together with the entire record; I have
made a de novo determination of all matters adjudicated by the Magistrate Judge’s
Recommended Decision; and I concur with the recommendations of the United States
Magistrate Judge for the reasons set forth in his Recommended Decision, and
determine that no further proceeding is necessary.
1. It is therefore ORDERED that the Recommended Decision of the
Magistrate Judge is hereby AFFIRMED.
2. It is further ORDERED that the Plaintiff’s Motion to Reinstate Dismissed
Complaint (ECF No. 23) be and hereby is DENIED.
3. It is further ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend Complaint (ECF
No. 24) is declared MOOT.

4. It is further ordered that as the Recommended Decision indicates, the
Court granted the Plaintiff’s motion to voluntarily dismiss his complaint
without prejudice, which means that the Plaintiff is free to file a new
action. However, for the reasons stated in the Recommended Decision, he
may not resurrect his voluntarily dismissed action.
SO ORDERED.
