MARCIA A. CRONE UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.

Plaintiff, C. Stewart, a former pretrial detainee at the Jefferson County Correctional Facility, proceeding pro se, filed this lawsuit against Defendants alleging civil rights violations under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The court referred this matter to the Honorable Zack Hawthorn, United States Magistrate Judge, for consideration pursuant to the applicable laws and orders of this court.

The court received and considered the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to such referral, along with the record, pleadings and all available evidence. After careful review, the court finds that the findings of fact and conclusions of law of the United States Magistrate Judge are correct.

Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate judge (#4) is ADOPTED. This case is DISMISSED for want of prosecution pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
