This matter is before the court on the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation. On January 25, 2008, this case was referred to the Magistrate Judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). Plaintiff then filed several motions, and, on May 8, 2008, Defendant State of Utah filed a Motion to Dismiss. On October February 24, 2009, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation, recommending that Defendant's Motion to Dismiss be granted and that Plaintiff's Complaint against all other defendants be dismissed.

After receiving an extension of time to file an Objection, Plaintiff filed his Objection on March 9, 2009. The court has considered Plaintiff's Objection to the Report and Recommendation, along with the entire case file.

Defendant's Motion to Dismiss is GRANTED, and Plaintiff's Complaint against all Defendants is DISMISSED with prejudice. Plaintiff's remaining motions are MOOT. The Clerk of the Court is directed to close this case.
