Defendants.

Before the court is Magistrate Judge Furse’s Report and Recommendation (R & R) 1
under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) recommending that the court grant Defendant’s Motion to
Dismiss. 2 Plaintiff Thomas B. Ginter filed a document 3 which the court has construed as an
objection to the R & R. Ginter’s objection fails to directly address any of findings contained in
the R & R. Instead Ginter provides a somewhat incoherent list of terms without stating how they
relate to his objection or to the R & R. 4
