MARK DOWNEY Plaintiff, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, et al., Defendants.
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
This action was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Dwane L. Tinsley for submission to this court of proposed findings of fact and recommendation for disposition, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). On December 3, 2019, Magistrate Judge Tinsley submitted the Proposed Findings of Fact and Recommendation ("PF&R"), [ECF No. 7], recommending the court DISMISS Plaintiff's complaint, [ECF No. 2], because it is frivolous and fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. To date, no objections to Magistrate Judge Tinsley 's PF&R have been filed, and the time period for the filing of objections has passed.
Accordingly, the court ADOPTS and INCORPORATES herein the PF&R. For the reasons stated, the court DISMISSES with prejudice Plaintiff's complaint [ECF No. 2] because it is frivolous and fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. The court DIRECTS the Clerk to send a copy of this Order to counsel of record and any unrepresented party.
