CIVIL ACTION NO. 1:17-CV-431

MEMORANDUM ORDER OVERRULING OBJECTIONS AND ADOPTING THE
MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff, Thomas Lamont Murphy, an inmate confined at the Mark Stiles Unit with the
Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Correctional Institutions Division, proceeding pro se and
in forma pauperis, filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against defendants
Feliciar Davis, David Montgomery, Mary Gilder, Wayne Brewer, and Steve Massie.
The court referred this matter to the Honorable Zack Hawthorn, United States Magistrate
Judge, at Beaumont, Texas, for consideration pursuant to applicable laws and orders of this court.
The Magistrate Judge recommends plaintiff’s motion for preliminary injunction be denied.
The court has received and considered the Report and Recommendation of United States

filed objections to the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation. This requires a de novo
review of the objections in relation to the pleadings and the applicable law. See FED. R. CIV. P.
72(b). After a careful review, this court finds the objections lacking in merit.

ORDER
Accordingly, the objections of the plaintiff are OVERRULED. The findings of fact and
conclusions of law of the Magistrate Judge are correct, and the report of the Magistrate Judge is
.
ADOPTED.
SIGNED at Beaumont, Texas, this 7th day of September, 2004.
