DONALD RAY LAWRENCE, Plaintiff, v. JENNIFER C. HOLT, et al., Defendants.


MEMORANDUM OPINION

The magistrate judge filed a report on April 12, 2019, recommending the plaintiff's federal claims be dismissed without prejudice for failing to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1). (Doc. 7). The magistrate judge further recommended that the plaintiff's state law claims be dismissed without prejudice pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3). (Id.). Although the magistrate judge advised the plaintiff of his right to file specific written objections within fourteen (14) days, no objections have been received by the court.

Having carefully reviewed and considered de novo all the materials in the court file, including the report and recommendation, the magistrate judge's report is hereby ADOPTED and the recommendation is ACCEPTED. Therefore, in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1), the plaintiff's federal claims are due to be dismissed without prejudice for failing to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Additionally, the plaintiff's state law claims asserted in the complaint are due to be dismissed without prejudice pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3).

A Final Judgment will be entered.

DONE the 6th day of May, 2019.
