Opinion

Case No. 2:16-cv-150-DB-EJF

09-28-2018

HAROLD V. ROBINSON, Plaintiff, v. THOMAS E. BRANDON, in his official capacity as Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and JEFF SESSIONS, in his official capacity as Attorney General of the United States Defendants.


ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation issued by United States Magistrate Judge Evelyn J. Furse on August 31, 2018, recommending that Defendants' Motion to Dismiss be granted. (Dkt. No. 48.) The parties were notified of their right to file objections to the Report and Recommendation within 14 days of service pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636 and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72. Plaintiff filed a timely Objection, arguing that he should again be permitted to amend his Complaint, and that the right to self-defense is protected by the Substantive Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment. (Dkt. No. 49.) Plaintiff raised the same arguments made in the Objection in the briefing and oral argument before Judge Furse prior to her issuance of the Report and Recommendation.

This court has completed a de novo review of all materials, including the record that was before the magistrate judge and the reasoning set forth in the Report and Recommendation. The court has also considered the arguments set forth in the Objection. The analysis and conclusion of the magistrate judge are correct and the Report and Recommendation will be adopted.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation is ADOPTED and Defendants' Motion to Dismiss is hereby GRANTED.

DATED this 28th day of September, 2018.

BY THE COURT:
