ORDER OF DISMISSAL
Plaintiff George Lee Tucker, II, an inmate confined at the Coffield Unit of the Texas prison
system, brings this civil lawsuit under the First Amendment and Religious Land Use and
Institutionalized Persons Act (“RLUIPA”). The complaint was referred to United States Magistrate
Judge K. Nicole Mitchell, who issued a Report and Recommendation (docket entry #109) concluding
that the sole remaining defendant’s motion for summary judgment should be granted. Tucker has filed
objections.
The Report of the Magistrate Judge, which contains her proposed findings of fact and
recommendations for the disposition of such action, has been presented for consideration, and having
made a de novo review of the objections raised by Tucker to the Report, the Court is of the opinion
that the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge are correct, and the objections raised by
Tucker lack merit. Therefore the Court hereby adopts the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate
Judge as the findings and conclusions of the Court. It is accordingly
ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (docket entry #109) is ADOPTED. It is
further
ORDERED that the Defendant Gaddis’ motion for summary judgment (docket entry #86) is
GRANTED. It is further

1

ORDERED that the complaint is DISMISSED with prejudice. It is finally
ORDERED that all motions not previously ruled on are DENIED.
It is SO ORDERED.
SIGNED this 28th day of October, 2015.
