Civil Action No. 7:15cv00675
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT
AND RECOMMENDATION
By: Norman K. Moon
United States District Judge

Terah C. Morris, a Virginia inmate proceeding pro se, filed a civil rights action pursuant
to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 alleging denial of medical and mental health evaluation and treatment
concerning Gender Identity Disorder. I referred the matter, including pending motions for
preliminary injunctive relief and summary judgment, to United States Magistrate Judge Pamela
Meade Sargent for a Report and Recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). The
Magistrate Judge subsequently filed a report, finding that Morris failed to demonstrate that
preliminary injunctive relief or summary judgment in his favor is appropriate. Accordingly, the
Magistrate Judge recommends that I deny Morris’s motions seeking preliminary injunctive relief
and summary judgment. Neither party filed objections to the Report and Recommendation
within the time allotted. Having reviewed the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation
and pertinent portions of the record, I agree with the Magistrate Judge’s recommendation.
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge’s Report and
Recommendation (Docket No. 141) is ADOPTED; Morris’s motions seeking preliminary
injunctive relief (Docket Nos. 52, 70, 80, 119, and 126) are DENIED; and Morris’s motions for
summary judgment (Docket Nos. 82, 111, and 117) are DENIED.
The Clerk of the Court is directed to send a copy of this order to the parties.
