ASIA JOHNSON, Plaintiff, v. DOCTOR MORTONE, Defendant.


Hon. Maureen P. Kelly

ORDER OF COURT

WILLIAM S. STICKMAN IV, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

Plaintiff Asia Johnson ("Plaintiff), who is a prolific serial filer of civil rights lawsuits, was granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis on September 7, 2021. (ECF No. 4). Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915, Magistrate Judge Maureen P. Kelly issued a Report and Recommendation on September 16, 2021, recommending that the Court dismiss this case with prejudice without leave to amend. (ECF No. 6). Plaintiff was given until October 4, 2021, to file objections to the Report and Recommendation. (ECF No. 6).

No objections having been filed, the Court hereby ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Kelly's Report and Recommendation as its Opinion. It wholeheartedly agrees with Magistrate Judge Kelly that Plaintiff has failed to present any colorable legal argument.

AND NOW, this ___ day of October 2021, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiffs Complaint is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. The Court holds that further amendment would be futile. See 3 James Wm. Moore et al., Moore's Federal Practice ¶ 15.15 (3d ed. 2021) ("An amendment is futile if it merely restates the same facts as the original complaint in different terms, reasserts a claim on which the court previously ruled, fails to state a legal theory, or could not withstand a motion to dismiss.")- The Clerk of Court is directed to mark this CASE CLOSED.
