IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS LUFKIN DIVISION ELVIS WAYNE JONES § VS. § THE TEXAS U.S. DISTRICT COURTS JUDGES, et al., § CIVIL ACTION NO. 9:17-CV-183 MEMORANDUM ORDER OVERRULING OBJECTIONS AND ADOPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION Plaintiff, Elvis Wayne Jones, an inmate confined at the Polunsky Unit with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Correctional Institutions Division, proceeding pro se, filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against defendants The Texas U.S. District Courts Judges, the Texas Board Pardons and Paroles, and the Texas Allan b. Polunsky Monitored Facility. The Court referred this matter to the Honorable Keith Giblin United States Magistrate Judge, at Beaumont, Texas, for consideration pursuant to applicable laws and orders of this Court. The Magistrate Judge recommends plaintiff’s civil rights action be dismissed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). The Court has received and considered the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge filed pursuant to such order, along with the record, and pleadings. Plaintiff filed objections (docket entry nos. 6 & 8) to the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge. This requires a de novo review of the objections in relation to the pleadings and applicable law. See FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b). Plaintiff’s objections are, for the most part, incomprehensible. Plaintiff appears to allege a conspiracy between United States Magistrate Judge Keith Giblin and former United States Magistrate Judge Earl Hines. Although not explicitly stated, it would appear plaintiff alleges they have conspired to prevent him from proceeding in forma pauperis. Plaintiff also accuses various courts of “espionage.” As outlined in the Report and Recommendation, however, plaintiff has incurred three strikes against him in the Eastern District of Texas, the Southern District of Texas, and the District of Alaska. Plaintiff has failed to demonstrate he is under imminent danger of serious physical injury. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). ORDER Accordingly, plaintiff’s objections 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. Plaintiff has thirty (30) days from entry below to pay the full $400.00 filing fee. Failure to comply will result in dismissal of this case pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). So Ordered and Signed Jan 11, 2018 2
