ORDER ADOPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
MARCIA A. CRONE, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Plaintiff Eric Wallace Koehl, a prisoner previously confined at the Polk County Jail, proceeding pro se, filed this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against the Livingston Hospital and Nurse Padget.
The court referred this matter to the Honorable Christine L. Stetson, United States Magistrate Judge, at Beaumont, Texas, for consideration pursuant to applicable laws and orders of this court. On September 30, 2024, the magistrate judge recommended dismissing the action without prejudice for want of prosecution pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g), unless Plaintiff paid the $405.00 filing fee within fourteen days. To date, the parties have not filed objections to the report. Plaintiff has not paid the filing fee.
The court received and considered the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to such referral, along with the record, pleadings and all available evidence. After careful review, the court finds that the findings of fact and conclusions of law of the United States Magistrate Judge are correct.
Accordingly, the findings of fact and conclusions of law of the magistrate judge are correct, and the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge (#10) is ADOPTED. A final judgment will be entered in this case in accordance with the magistrate judge's recommendation.
