ARMONI MASUD JOHNSON, Plaintiff, v. SUPERINTENDENT MCGINLEY, et. al., Defendants.
Mehalchick, Chief Magistrate Judge.
ORDER
Matthew W. Brann, Chief United States District Judge.
Armoni Masud Johnson, a Pennsylvania state prisoner, filed this civil rights complaint, which he later amended, alleging that numerous defendants violated his constitutional rights during his incarceration. In March 2022, Chief Magistrate Judge Karoline Mehalchick issued a Report and Recommendation recommending that this Court deny Johnson's pending fraud claim motion, omnibus rule 60(b) motion, and omnibus motion to compel justice. Johnson filed timely objections to the Report and Recommendation.

Doc. 95.
Doc. 100.
“If a party objects timely to a magistrate judge's report and recommendation, the district court must ‘make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which objection is made.'” Regardless of whether timely objections are made, district courts may accept, reject, or modify-in whole or in part-the magistrate judge's findings or recommendations. After reviewing the record, the Court finds no error in Chief Magistrate Judge Mehalchick's recommendations. Consequently, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
Equal Emp't Opportunity Comm'n v. City of Long Branch, 866 F.3d 93, 99 (3d Cir. 2017) (quoting 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)).
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Local Rule 72.31.
1. Chief Magistrate Judge Karoline Mehalchick's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 95) is ADOPTED;
2. Johnson's fraud claim motion (Doc. 80), omnibus rule 60(b) motion (Doc. 82), and omnibus motion to compel justice (Doc. 93) are DENIED; and
3. This matter is REMANDED to Chief Magistrate Judge Mehalchick for further proceedings.
