Case No. 13-CV-00090
JUDGE ALGENON L. MARBLEY
Magistrate Judge Abel
OPINION AND ORDER
This case is before the Court on the Initial Screening Report and Recommendation
(Doc. 13) recommending the dismissal of Plaintiff Antione S. Lee’s Complaint under 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 against Sergeant Joe Meyers (Doc. 7). Under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, the Court must dismiss
any civil action by a prisoner that is “frivolous [or] malicious,” “fails to state a claim on which
relief may be granted,” or “seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such
relief.” On July 22, 2013, the Magistrate Judge found that the Complaint failed to state a claim
for relief. (See Doc. 13). Plaintiff was specifically informed that any objection to the Report and
Recommendation must be filed within 14 days. (Id. at 4). Plaintiff acknowledged receipt of the
Report and Recommendation on July 25, 2013 (Doc. 14), but has filed no objections.
Since Plaintiff has not objected, and deadline has elapsed, the Court ADOPTS the
Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation. The Complaint is hereby DISMISSED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
