JIM (JAMES) DIXON, Plaintiff, v. FALCON HEIGHTS CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION, et al., Defendants.
ORDER
PANNER, District Judge:
Magistrate Judge Mark D. Clarke filed a Report and Recommendation, and the matter is now before this court. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). Although no objections have been filed, this court reviews legal principles de novo. See Lorin Corp. v Goto & Co., Ltd., 700 F.2d 1202, 1206 (8th Cir. 1983).
After reviewing the file, I agree with Magistrate Judge Clarke that plaintiff s claims are barred by claim preclusion and by the Rooker-Feldman doctrine. Accordingly, I adopt the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Clarke.
CONCLUSION
Magistrate Judge Clarke's Report and Recommendation (#73) is adopted. Defendants' motions for summary judgment (#46, #49) are granted. Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (#53) is denied.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
