RICHARD COLEMAN,
Plaintiff,
v.
STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE, et al.,
Defendants.

These actions are before the court on the memorandum and recommendation (“M&R”) in
each case of Magistrate Judge James E. Gates, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Fed. R. Civ.
P. 72(b), wherein it is recommended that the court transfer plaintiff’s actions on frivolity review
under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). Plaintiff did not object to the M&Rs. The magistrate judge
determined that plaintiff’s actions must be transferred to the District of New Hampshire, pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), or, alternatively, 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a). Upon careful review of the M&Rs
and the record generally, finding no error in this determination, the court ADOPTS the findings and
recommendations of the magistrate judge. These actions are TRANSFERRED to the District of

New Hampshire pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a) and 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a). The clerk is DIRECTED
to close this case.
SO ORDERED, this the 14th day of November, 2016.
