IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO
WESTERN DIVISION - CINCINNATI

LE'SEAN EDGE,

Case No. l:21-cv-532

Plaintiff,

Judge Matthew W. McFarland

vs.
RON ERDOS, et al.,

Defendants.

ORDER ADOPTING REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS (Docs. 4, 9 & 16)

This action is before the Court upon multiple Reports and Recommendations (the
"Reports") (Docs. 4, 9 & 16) of United States Magistrate Judge Stephanie K. Bowman, to
whom this case is referred pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). In the Reports, Magistrate
Judge Bowman recommended the following: (1) Plaintiff's Complaint (Doc. 1) be
dismissed with prejudice, (2) Plaintiff's Motion for a Preliminary Injunction and/ or
Temporary Restraining Order (Doc. 6) be denied, and (3) Plaintiff's Amended Complaint
(Doc. 15) be dismissed with prejudice, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915(e)(2)(B) and
1915A(b)(l), with exception to Plaintiff's First Amendment retaliation claims against
Defendants Lt. Barney, C.O. Josh Kinner, and Ron Erdos. Plaintiff filed Objections to the
Reports (Docs. 5 & 17). Thus, this matter is ripe for the Court's review.
As required by 28 U.S.C.

§

636(b) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b), the

Court has made a de novo review of the record in this case. Upon said review, the Court
finds that Plaintiff's Objections are not well-taken and are accordingly OVERRULED.

Case: 1:21-cv-00532-MWM-SKB Doc #: 37 Filed: 09/16/22 Page: 2 of 2 PAGEID #: 255

Thus, the Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Bowman's Reports and Recommendations
(Docs. 4, 9 & 16) in their entirety and ORDERS the following:
(1) Plaintiff's Complaint (Doc. 1) is DISMISSED with prejudice;

(2) Plaintiff's Motion for a Preliminary Injunction and/ or Temporary Restraining
Order (Doc. 6) is DENIED; and

(3) Plaintiff's Amended Complaint (Doc. 15) is DISMISSED with prejudice, with
exception of Plaintiff's First Amendment retaliation claims against Defendants Lt.
Barney, C.O. Josh Kinner, and Ron Erdos.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
