HON. ROBERT HOLMES BELL


ORDER APPROVING AND ADOPTING

MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

On September 17, 2013, Magistrate Judge Scoville issued a Report and Recommendation ("R&R") (Dkt.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge's September 17, 2013, R&R (Dkt. No. 31) is APPROVED and ADOPTED as the opinion of the Court.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment (Dkt. No. 15) is GRANTED.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's claims for injunctive relief are DISMISSED AS MOOT.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's claims for damages against Defendants Zwiker and Ault are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
