ORDER
On January 3, 2018, United States Magistrate Judge Magistrate Judge Renée Harris Toliver
entered the Findings, Conclusions and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge
(“Report”), recommending that the court grant Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 7), brought
pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), and dismiss with prejudice Plaintiff’s claims
for alleged violations of the civil Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”),
the only cause of action asserted by Plaintiff. The magistrate judge further recommended that the
court not allow Plaintiff to amend his pleadings. No objections to the Report were filed.
After considering the motion, briefs, pleadings, and Report, the court determines that the
findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge are correct, and accepts them as those of the court.
The court, therefore, grants Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 7); and dismisses with prejudice
Plaintiff’s RICO cause of action under Rule 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim upon which relief
can be granted. Further, for the reasons stated by the magistrate judge, the court will not allow
Plaintiff to amend his pleadings. As no other claims remain, the court will enter judgment by
separate order.
