Richard David Peterson, Plaintiff, v. Gregg County Sheriff Office, Defendant.
ORDER
J. CAMPBELL BARKER UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Plaintiff Richard David Peterson, an inmate of the Gregg County Jail proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this civil rights lawsuit pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). Doc. 2.
On January 8, 2024, the magistrate judge issued a report recommending that plaintiff's lawsuit be dismissed with prejudice for failure to state a claim pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1915A(b) and 1915(e). Doc. 10. A copy of the report was mailed to the plaintiff, who did not file written objections.
When no party objects to the magistrate judge's report and recommendation, the court reviews it only for clear error. See Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1420 (5th Cir. 1996) (en banc). Having reviewed the magistrate judge's report, and being satisfied that it contains no clear error, the court accepts its findings and recommendation. The court dismisses this case with prejudice.
So ordered.
