The case was transferred to Magistrate Judge Lisa Pupo Lenihan on April 6, 2004.
The magistrate judge's Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 69), filed on December 5, 2005, recommended that the Defendants' Motions to Dismiss (Doc. Nos. 46 59) be granted in part and denied in part. The motions should be granted as to Plaintiff's procedural due process claims (Count I), his state law contract claim (Count II), his international treaty claims (Count V) and his Eighth Amendment claim regarding Keri Lotion. The motions should be denied as to all other claims. The report and recommendation was served on the Plaintiff at SCI Mahanoy, 301 Morea Road, Frackville, PA 17932, and on counsel for the Defendants. The parties were advised they were allowed ten (10) days from the date of service to file written objections to the report and recommendation. Plaintiff filed a Motion for Extension of Time (Doc. No. 70) on January 27, 2006, which the Court granted. He filed a second Motion for Extension of Time (Doc. No. 72) on January 27, 2006. The Court again granted his motion, but required him to submit objections no later than February 10, 2006. Plaintiff filed a third Motion for Extension (Doc. No. 74) on February 17, 2006, that the Court denied. Plaintiff filed an Appeal of the Magistrate Decision (Doc. No. 76) on March 6, 2006, which was denied by Order of Court (Doc.
