MARCUS SIMPSON, Plaintiff v. HAMILTON COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS, et al., Defendants
ORDER
This matter is before the Court upon the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge (doc. no. 4) and plaintiff's objections thereto (doc. no. 8). The Magistrate Judge concluded that plaintiff's Complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted and therefore recommended that plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed with prejudice.
Plaintiff objects to the Judge's Report and Recommendation on the grounds that his findings are contrary to law. Upon a de novo review of the record, especially in light of plaintiff's objections, the Court finds that plaintiff's objections have either been adequately addressed and properly disposed of by the Judge or present no particularized arguments that warrant specific responses by this Court. The Court finds that the Magistrate Judge has accurately set forth the controlling principles of law and properly applied them to the particular facts of this case and agrees with the Magistrate Judge.
Accordingly, the Court hereby ADOPTS AND INCORPORATES BY REFERENCE HEREIN the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge (doc. no. 4). Plaintiff's Complaint (doc. no. 3) is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted.
The Court certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a) that for the foregoing reasons an appeal of this Order adopting this Report and Recommendation would not be taken in good faith and therefore denies plaintiff leave to appeal in forma pauperis. Plaintiff remains free to apply to proceed in forma pauperisin the Court of Appeals. See Callihan v. Schneider, 178 F.3d 800, 803 (6th Cir. 1999), overruling in part Floyd v. United States Postal Serv., 105 F.3d 274, 277 (6th Cir. 1997).
This case is DISMISSED AND TERMINATED on the docket of this Court.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
