ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS RE PLAINTIFF'S REQUEST FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF (DOCS. 90, 92, 93)

OLIVER WANGER, District Judge

This case is before the Court on the Findings and Recommendations of the Magistrate Judge to deny Plaintiff's request for injunctive relief.

Plaintiff seeks injunctive relief to mandate prison officials to provide him with "necessary and recommended" physical therapy. Defendants argue that individuals against whom relief is sought are not parties to this action. Further, there is a dispute between Plaintiff and Defendants regarding the quality and extent of medical care furnished to him. Plaintiff has made no showing that he is likely to prevail on the merits. Further, the parties against whom injunctive relief is sought are not Defendants in this case.

The Magistrate Judge's Findings and Recommendations are fully supported by the facts and law.

IT IS ORDERED:

1. The Findings and Recommendations of the Magistrate Judge filed May 5, 2005, are ADOPTED;

2. The Plaintiff's motion for preliminary injunctive relief filed January 6, 2003, is DENIED.
