DANNY L. COLLIER, Plaintiff, v. SULLIVAN COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, SULLIVAN COUNTY SHERIFF JEFF CASSIDY, POLICE CHIEF DAVID QUILLEN, KPD, CAPTAIN RICE, JONESBOROUGH, TENNESSEE POLICE DEPARTMENT, INSPECTOR JOE JAYNES, and JOHNSON CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT, Defendants.
ORDER
THOMAS A. VARLAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
This civil matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendations (the “R&R”) entered by United States Magistrate Judge Jill E. McCook on July 8, 2022 [Doc. 11]. In the R&R, Judge McCook granted plaintiff's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis [Doc. 2]. Additionally, after screening the complaint, Judge McCook recommended that the Court dismiss the complaint because plaintiff's claims are meritless and deny the outstanding motions to dismiss [Docs. 6, 8, 9] as futile. There have been no timely objections to the R&R, and enough time has passed since the filing of the R&R to treat any objections as having been waived. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72.
After a careful review of the matter, the Court agrees with Judge McCook's recommendations. Accordingly, the Court ACCEPTS IN WHOLE the R&R [Doc. 11]. Therefore, this action is hereby DISMISSED, the pending motions to amend [Docs. 6, 8, 9] are DENIED as futile, and the Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to CLOSE this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
