ORDER

This matter comes before the Court on a Report and Recommendation ("R & R") from
the Magistrate Judge recommending that this action be dismissed without prejudice and without
service of process. (Dkt. No. 15). Plaintiff was advised that any written objections to the R &
R must be made within 14 days of the service of the R & R. (ld. at 4). Plaintiff was further
advised that in the absence of timely written objections this Court would provide limited "clear
error" review and Plaintiff would waive his right to appeal the judgment of the District Court.

(Id.). No timely written objections were made.
The Court has reviewed the R & R, the pleading in this matter and the relevant legal
authorities. The Court finds that the Magistrate Judge ably and properly summarized the factual
and legal issues and appropriately recommended that the action should be dismissed without
prejudice and without service of process. These findings and recommendations were made after
due consideration by the Magistrate Judge that Plaintiff is self-representing and is entitled to a
liberal standard for the review of his pleading. (ld. at 2). Therefore, the Court adopts the R & R

-1­

as the order of this Court and hereby dismisses this action without prejudice and without service
of process.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
