ORDER
The above captioned case was received on October 20, 2006, and was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Lisa Pupo Lenihan for pretrial proceedings in accordance with the Magistrates Act, 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), and Rules 72.1.3 and 72.1.4 of the Local Rules for Magistrates.
The Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation (doc. no. 224), filed on May 19, 2010, recommended that the Motion for Summary Judgment filed by Defendants Walton, Cmar, Hostoffer, Lowther, Rosado, Hutchinson, Balya, Ceraso, Light and the Westmoreland County Jail (doc. no. 136) be granted except as to Plaintiff's claim of excessive force against Defendants Hostoffer, Rosado and Hutchinson.

After a de novo review of the pleadings and documents in the case, together with the Report and Recommendation and the Objections thereto, the following order is entered:
