Case No. 1:22-cv-10535 Honorable Thomas L. Ludington United States District Judge TAMMY BRUNO, et al., Defendants. ______________________________________/ Honorable Patricia T. Morris United States Magistrate Judge OPINION AND ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION AND DISMISSING PLAINTIFF’S COMPLAINT IN PART This matter is before this Court on Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris’s Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) to sua sponte dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint in part. ECF No. 7. Although the R&R states that Plaintiff could object to and seek review of the recommendation within 14 days of service, Plaintiff has not done so. He has therefore waived his right to appeal Judge Morris’s findings. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Morris’s Report and Recommendation, ECF No. 7, is ADOPTED. Further, it is ORDERED that (1) Plaintiff’s claims against the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services/CPS; (2) Plaintiff’s official-capacity claims against Tammy Bruno and Melissa Johnson; (3) Plaintiff’s equal-protection claims against any Defendant; and (4) Plaintiff’s Franks, false-arrest, and malicious-prosecution claims, except to the extent that these claims are premised on a civil conspiracy, are DISMISSED. This is not a final order and does not close the case. Dockets.Justia.com Case 1:22-cv-10535-TLL-PTM ECF No. 9, PageID.33 Filed 08/02/22 Page 2 of 2 Dated: August 2, 2022 s/Thomas L.
