ORDER ADOPTING 4/18/22 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION AND GRANTING DEFENDANT DRIGGETT'S SUMMARY JUDGMENT MOTION
Sean F. Cox, United States District Court Judge
Plaintiff, an incarcerated person, filed this pro se action asserting claims against a litany of Defendants, under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Upon screening of the complaint, Plaintiff's claims were dismissed against all but two defendants, Burton Police Officer Jeremy Driggett and state district judge Herman Marable, Jr.. (See ECF No. 6). The matter was then referred to the magistrate judge for all pretrial proceedings. (ECF No. 10).
At this juncture, Driggett is the only remaining Defendant. On April 18, 2022, the magistrate judge issued a Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 44) (“the R&R”) wherein she recommends that the Court grant Defendant Driggett's summary judgment motion and dismiss Plaintiff's claims against Driggett with prejudice.
The time permitted for the parties to file objections to that Report and Recommendation has passed and no objections were filed. Accordingly, the Court hereby ADOPTS the April 18, 2022 Report and Recommendation. The Court ORDERS that Defendant Driggett's summary judgment motion is GRANTED and Plaintiff's claims against Driggett are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
