IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI OXFORD DIVISION WILLIE E. COWANS vs. PLAINTIFF CIVIL ACTION NO. 3:15-CV-101-MPM-JMV STATE OF MISSISSIPPI, DESOTO COUNTY JUSTICE COURT, ANNIE JAMERSON, JAMES WOODS, JESSIE J. MAXWELL, JULIUS GUY, TERRY GUY, and ALFONZO GUY DEFENDANTS ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION On consideration of the record of this action, the court finds that the Report and Recommendation [18] of the United States Magistrate Judge dated December 7, 2015, was on that date duly mailed to pro se plaintiff via USPS; that more than fourteen days have elapsed since service of said Report and Recommendation; and that while objections thereto have been filed by Plaintiff, such objections are meritless. Plaintiff filed a 15-page [18] Motion to Object to Dismissal and a 35page [20] Motion for Speedy Return, both of which included nothing more than the same miscellaneous copies of a variety of documents that made up Plaintiff’s previously filed [1] original complaint, [3] amended complaint, and [16] second amended complaint. The miscellaneous documents constituting [18] Plaintiff’s Motion to Object to Dismissal and [20] Motion for Speedy Return remain just a reshuffled copy of the documents previously filed in this action and a duplicate action filed in this court (see, 3:15-cv-77-MPM-JMV)), lacking, as discussed in the Report and Recommendation, any assertion of a properly stated claim or basis for this court to exercise jurisdiction. The court is of the opinion that the magistrate judge's Report and Recommendation should be approved and adopted as the opinion of the court. It is, therefore, ORDERED: 1. That the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge dated December 7, 2015, is hereby approved and adopted as the opinion of the court. 2. That the case is hereby DISMISSED for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and failure to adequately state a claim. 3. That this case is hereby CLOSED. THIS, the 7th day of January, 2016. /s/ MICHAEL P. MILLS UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI
