This matter comes before the Court on Defendant Herrera-Salazar's (“Defendant”) motion for judgment on the pleadings per Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(c). (ECF No. 25). Plaintiff Jermaine Robert Blair (“Plaintiff”) filed an opposition to the motion. (ECF No. 29). Defendant thereafter filed a reply. (ECF No. 30). Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Civil Local Rule 72.3, the motion was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge for a Report and Recommendation (“Report”).

This Court, having reviewed de novo the Magistrate Judge's Report, and Plaintiff's objections thereto, adopts the Magistrate Judge's recommendation in full. Accordingly, Defendant's Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings is granted, and Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint is dismissed with prejudice and without further leave to amend.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
