Opinion
CIVIL ACTION NO. 1:16-CV-1680-P
05-09-2017
MARVELL ANTONIO CULP, Plaintiff v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant
MAGISTRATE JUDGE PEREZ-MONTES
JUDGMENT
In a response to the Report and Recommendation, Plaintiff states that he filed the captioned suit in error, tinder the mistaken belief that his previous case, 1:16-cv-1267, had been dismissed in full as opposed to only the Bivens claim being dismissed. (Doc. 13).
Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that the captioned matter is hereby DISMISSED without prejudice to the prosecution of Culp's FTCA claim in the currently pending suit, 1:16-cv-1267.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, because of Plaintiff's misunderstanding, the filing fee in the captioned matter only SHALL NOT be collected. Plaintiff is still responsible for filing fees incurred in other cases.
THUS DONE AND SIGNED at Alexandria, Louisiana, this 9 day of May, 2017.
