CIVIL NO. 1:18-CV-172-DBH

ORDER AFFIRMING RECOMMENDED DECISION
OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On August 8, 2018, the United States Magistrate Judge filed with the
court, with a copy to the plaintiff, his Recommended Decision Upon Screening
Plaintiff’s Complaint Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A.

The Magistrate Judge

notified the plaintiff that failure to object would waive his right to de novo review
and appeal. The time within which to file an objection expired on August 22,
2018, and no objection has been filed.
Materials from the plaintiff were docketed on August 10, 2018, after the
Recommended Decision was docketed on August 8. The envelope containing
those materials from the plaintiff in the county jail, however, shows a postmark
of August 7 (ECF No. 16). Therefore, the materials are not a response or objection
to the Recommended Decision. I did read them regardless and, to the extent
they are legible and comprehensible (in large part they are illegible and

incomprehensible), they do not furnish any ground for rejecting the
Recommended Decision.
It is therefore ORDERED that the Recommended Decision of the Magistrate
Judge is hereby ADOPTED. After a review pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2), the
plaintiff’s Complaint is DISMISSED.
SO ORDERED.
DATED THIS 10TH DAY OF SEPTEMBER, 2018
