GILL W. JASMINE, SR. (#380255) v. BURL CAIN, ET AL.
RULING
The court has carefully considered the petition, the record, the law applicable to this action, and the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Richard L. Bourgeois, Jr. dated January 23, 2014 (doc. no. 122). The plaintiff filed an objection which merely states his prior arguments and has been duly considered.
The court hereby approves the report and recommendation of the magistrate judge and adopts it as the court's opinion herein. Accordingly, the court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the plaintiff's state law claims and the defendants' Motions for Summary Judgment (doc. nos. 21 and 59) are GRANTED, dismissing the plaintiff's claims asserted against the defendants, with prejudice, and this action is DISMISSED.
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, this 11th day of March, 2014.
