STEVEN ROY KILLINGSWORTH #728006 v. KARLA BRINGEDAHL, ET AL.


RULING AND ORDER

BRIAN A. JACKSON, JUDGE

This pro se prisoner action alleges deliberate indifference to Plaintiff's medical needs. (See Doc. 1, Doc. 33). Now before the Court is Defendants' collective Motion To Dismiss For Failure To State A Claim Upon Which Relief Can Be Granted (Doc. 28), seeking dismissal of Plaintiff's action, with prejudice.

On February 27, 2023, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation (Doc. 36, the “R&R”), recommending that Plaintiff's federal claims be dismissed with prejudice, and further recommending that the Court decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over any potential state law claims. The deadline for objecting to the R&R is past, without any objection from Plaintiff.

Having carefully considered Plaintiff's Complaint and Amended Complaint (Doc. 1, Doc. 33), Defendants' Motion, and related filings, the Court APPROVES the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation and ADOPTS it as the Court's opinion in this matter.

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Defendants' Motion To Dismiss For Failure To State A Claim Upon Which Relief Can Be Granted (Doc. 28) be and is hereby GRANTED.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's federal claims be and are hereby DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff's potential state law claims.

Judgement shall be entered separately.
