REEVES/LEE

MEMORANDUM AND JUDGMENT ORDER

This matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation filed by United States
Magistrate Judge, Susan K. Lee [R. 6]. There have been no timely objections to the Report and
Recommendation, and enough time has passed since the filing of the Report and Recommendation
to treat any objections as having been waived. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b).
After a careful review of this matter, the Court is in complete agreement with the Magistrate
Judge’s recommendation that plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis [R. 1] be denied.
The court further agrees that the complaint fails to state a cause of action for which relief can be
granted, and the complaint [R. 2] will be dismissed. The court notes that Mr. Green previously
attempted to assert similar claims in another action filed in this district which has been dismissed
for failure to state a claim. See Green v. Knight, et al., 1:17-CV-227.
Accordingly, the Court ACCEPTS IN WHOLE the Report and Recommendation under
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b). It is ORDERED, for the reasons stated in the Report

and Recommendation, which the Court adopts and incorporates into its ruling that plaintiff’s
application to proceed in forma pauperis [R. 1] is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the complaint [R.2] is dismissed for failure to state a
claim for which relief can be granted.
