Accordingly, having carefully reviewed and considered de novo all the materials in the court file, including the report and recommendation and the objections thereto, the magistrate judge’s report is hereby ADOPTED and the recommendation is ACCEPTED. Finding no genuine issues of material fact exist, Dockets.Justia.com and that the defendants are entitled to judgment as a matter of law, the court concludes that the defendants’ motion for summary judgment is due to be GRANTED . A Final Judgment will be issued contemporaneously herewith. DONE and ORDERED this August 16, 2016. _________________________________ VIRGINIA EMERSON HOPKINS UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 2
