Opinion
CASE NO. 1:07-cv-00132-MP-AK.
December 9, 2008
ORDER
This matter is before the Court on Doc. 17, Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, recommending that the complaint in this case is barred by doctrine of res judicata. The time for filing objections has passed, and none have been filed. The Court agrees withe Magistrate Judge that the exact event of which Plaintiff complains in this lawsuit is the arrest and injuries litigated in Case No. 1:05cv129-MD. Although Plaintiff adds defendants and facts in the present lawsuit, these persons and claims could have been brought in the previous lawsuit because these facts and persons were known to Plaintiff at the time he brought the earlier lawsuit. Accordingly, it is hereby
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:
1. The Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge is adopted and incorporated herein.
2. This case is dismissed with prejudice under the doctrine of res judicata.
