CIVIL ACTION NO. 3:16-1336

NEAL JACKSON, et al., Plaintiffs v. JASON WILLIAMS, et al., Defendants
( ) ORDER
Based on the report of Judge Carlson, (Doc. 2), to which no objections have been filed, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the report is ADOPTED IN ITS ENTIRETY. Plaintiffs' complaint, (Doc. 1), is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. See Roy v. Supreme Court of U.S., 484 F.App'x 700, 700 (3d Cir. 2012) (dismissal under Rule 8 is justified if the complaint is not comprehensible). Leave to amend is DENIED. The Clerk is directed to close the case.
On July 27, 2016, plaintiff filed a letter addressed to the clerk of court, (Doc. 5), with a copy of the first page of Judge Carlson's report attached. It appears that plaintiff is requesting a transfer from SCI-Huntingdon to SCI-Forest. This letter is not construed as an objection to the report nor is it titled as such. Regardless, it is well-settled law that prisoners have no inherent constitutional right to placement in any particular prison, to any security classification, or to any particular housing assignment.
