The above captioned case was received from the Eastern District of Pennsylvania on December 8, 2003, and was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Francis X. Caiazza for pretrial proceedings in accordance with the Magistrates Act, 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), and Rules 72.1.3 and 72.1.4 of the Local Rules for Magistrates. The case was transferred to Magistrate Judge Lisa Pupo Lenihan on April 12, 2004.
The magistrate judge's Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 55), filed on December 2, 2005, recommended that Defendants' Motions to Dismiss (doc. nos. 37 and 54) be granted and that the Complaint be dismissed in accordance with the Prison Litigation Reform Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915A and 1915(e). The Report and Recommendation was forwarded to Plaintiff at SCI Houtzdale, P.O. Box 1000, Houtzdale, PA 16698-1000. Plaintiff was advised he was allowed ten (10) days from the date of service to file written objections to the report and recommendation. No objections were filed. Subsequently, the Report and Recommendation was returned to the District Court with a large RETURN TO SENDER sticker on it. Upon inquiry, it was determined that the Plaintiff was released from SCI-Houtzdale on May 27, 2005; however, Plaintiff has not filed any notice advising the Court of his new address.
After review of the pleadings and documents in the case, together with the report and recommendation, the following order is entered:
