United States Magistrate Judge John T. Johnston entered his Findings and Recommendations in this case on October 27, 2017, recommending that Plaintiff Randy Bryant Wick's ("Wick") Complaint be dismissed because he has failed to name a proper Defendant, and his claims are barred by the Rooker Feldman doctrine and the doctrine inHeckv.
