ORDER
This matter is before the Court pursuant to the Order of General Reference in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio Western Division to United States Magistrate
Judge Karen L. Litkovitz. Pursuant to such reference, the Magistrate Judge reviewed the pleadings
and filed with this Court on April 6, 2015 a Report and Recommendation (Doc. 14). Subsequently,
the plaintiff filed objections to such Report and Recommendation (Doc. 15) and defendant filed a
response to the objection (Doc. 16).
The Court has reviewed the comprehensive findings of the Magistrate Judge and considered
de novo all of the filings in this matter. Upon consideration of the foregoing, the Court does
determine that such Recommendation should be adopted.
Accordingly, defendant Rudduck’s motion to dismiss (doc. 8) is GRANTED. Plaintiff’s
motion for summary judgment (doc. 11) is DENIED as moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
