JUDGE JAMES P. JONES

The plaintiff has filed a timely objections to the Report filed June 16, 2021, setting

magistrate judge. I find that the findings of the magistrate judge contained in the Report
are supported by the evidence and legal principles applied. Accordingly, it is ORDERED
as follows:
1.

The objections of the plaintiff, ECF Nos. 72 and 73, are DENIED;

2.

The Report, ECF No. 60, and its findings and recommendations are wholly

ACCEPTED and APPROVED; and
3.

Judgment will be entered in favor of the defendant.
