ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
This civil rights action brought by a prisoner, proceeding pro se, was referred to United
States Magistrate Judge Doyle W. Argo, consistent with the provisions of 28 U.S.C.
§ 636(b)(1)(B). Judge Argo entered a Report and Recommendation on April 19, 2012, to which
Plaintiff has timely objected. The Court therefore considers the matter de novo.
The facts and relevant law are set out in full in the accurate and well-reasoned opinion of
the Magistrate Judge and no point would be served in repeating that analysis. In his objection,
Plaintiff raises no issue of law or fact that was not fairly addressed and correctly decided by the
Magistrate Judge.
Accordingly, the Court adopts, in its entirety, the Report and Recommendation of the
Magistrate Judge, and for the reasons announced therein, the State of Oklahoma is dismissed with
prejudice; Major County is dismissed without prejudice. This matter is recommitted to Judge
Roberts under the Order of Referral.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 14th day of May, 2012.
