ORDER APPROVING AND ADOPTING
MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
On October 15, 2012, Magistrate Judge Joseph G. Scoville issued a Report and
Recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that all federal claims in Plaintiff’s pro se
complaint be dismissed with prejudice pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2), and that all statelaw claims be dismissed without prejudice. (Dkt. No. 12.) No objections have been filed,
and the deadline for doing so has expired. The Court has reviewed the matter and concludes
that the R&R correctly analyzes the issues and makes a sound recommendation.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge’s October 15, 2012, R&R
(Dkt. No. 12) is APPROVED and ADOPTED as the opinion of the Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all of Plaintiff’s federal claims are DISMISSED
WITH PREJUDICE, and all of Plaintiff’s state-law claims are DISMISSED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE.
