SCOTT JONES, Plaintiff, v. PRISON HEALTH SERVICES, et al., Defendants.
Hon. Lawrence P. Zatkoff
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, filed a complaint with the Court alleging that Defendants— Prison Health Services; Doctors Pragna Pandya, David Sharp, Adam Edelman, Zavit Cohen, Yasir Zaidi, John Doe 1-20; and the Michigan Department of Corrections— violated his civil rights by denying or delaying medical care for his alleged cancer [dkt 1]. Defendant Yasir Zaidi ("Zaidi") moved for dismissal on the grounds that, inter alia, he is not a state actor [dkt 62]. The matter currently before the Court is Magistrate Judge Michelson's Report and Recommendation [dkt 73], in which the Magistrate Judge recommends granting Zaidi's motion. Plaintiff has not filed objections to the Report and Recommendation and the time period within which he must do so has expired. The Court has thoroughly reviewed the court file, Zaidi's motion, and the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation. Based on this review, the Court ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation and enters it as the findings and conclusions of this Court
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Zaidi's motion to dismiss [dkt 62] is GRANTED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
