In relevant part, this Decision recommended dismissal of Plaintiff’s Complaint unless a timely amended complaint was filed containing “an actionable claim.” (Rec. Dec. at PageID # 168.) On May 4, 2020, Plaintiff made a 104-page filing with the Court which is titled, “Amended Complaint and Objection to the Recommended Dismissal” (ECF No. 8). I have reviewed and considered the Magistrate Judge’s Recommended Decision, together with the entire record; I have made a de novo of all matters adjudicated by the Recommended Decision; and I concur with the recommendations of the United States Magistrate Judge for the reasons set forth in his Recommended Decision. To the extent that Plaintiff has presented objections to the Recommended Decision, the Court finds those objections to be without merit and overrules those objections.
