EDWARD BURLEY #502426, Plaintiff, v. MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, ET AL., Defendants.
ORDER ACCEPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [DOC. 98]
This matter is before the court on plaintiff Edward Burley's action alleging that defendants violated his constitutional rights by failing to provide him with accommodations for his hearing disability while incarcerated. Burley alleges that defendants have denied him his rights under the First and Fourteenth Amendments and have violated the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") and the Rehabilitation Act. Plaintiff filed a motion for preliminary injunction [doc. 79] which was referred to the magistrate judge for report and recommendation. The matter is presently before the court on Magistrate Judge Morris' report and recommendation which recommends that Burley's motion for preliminary injunction be denied. Objections to the report have not been filed by defendant within the established time period. The court has reviewed the file, record, and magistrate judge's report and recommendation.
The court agrees with the analysis conducted by the magistrate judge, and therefore accepts her recommendation that plaintiff's motion for injunctive relief be DENIED. Dated: March 22, 2017
