JOHN W. DEGRAVELLES, JUDGE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
After independently reviewing the entire record in this case and for the reasons set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Report dated February 22, 2023 (Doc. 6), to no objection was filed;

Ford is advised that 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) provides that, “In no event shall a prisoner bring a civil action or appeal a judgment in a civil action or proceeding under this section [Proceedings in forma pauperis] if the prisoner has, on 3 or more prior occasions, while incarcerated or detained in any facility, brought an action or appeal in a court of the United States that was dismissed on the grounds that it is frivolous, malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, unless the prisoner is under imminent danger of serious physical injury.”
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that that this Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff Thomas Ford's potential state law claims.
Judgment shall be entered accordingly.
