County of Escambia, Fla., 132 F.3d 1359, 1369 (11th Cir. 1998), overruled on other grounds by Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662)

OPINION and ORDER
This litigation is now before the court on the recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge, entered on January 6, 2011, that this case be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. After a review of the recommendation, to which no timely objections have been filed, and after an independent and de novo review of the entire record, the court believes that the recommendation should be adopted. Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the recommendation of the magistrate judge (doc. # 11) is adopted and that the motion to dismiss (doc. # 5) is granted.
An appropriate judgment will be entered.
Done this the 28th day of January, 2011.
