Opinion
Case No. 17-11154
10-26-2017
Duane Letroy Berry, Plaintiff, v. Midland County Jail, et al., Defendants.
ORDER ADOPTING 9/6/17 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff, who is incarcerated at the Midland County Jail. Acting pro se, he filed this action on April 10, 2017. The Court referred the matter for pretrial proceedings before Magistrate Judge David Grand (Doc. # 9).
On September 6, 2017, Magistrate Judge Grand issued a Report and Recommendation ("R&R") (Doc. # 11) wherein he recommends that the Court dismiss Plaintiff's complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e).
The time for filing objections to the R&R has expired. Plaintiff has filed several documents in the wake of the R&R including a document titled "Judicial Notice" that claims the Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction (Doc. # 12), a petition for a Writ of Assistance (Doc. # 13-14), and a Motion for Contempt (Doc. # 15-16). These documents, even when liberally construed, do not raise objections to the R&R and do not otherwise have merit.
The Court hereby ADOPTS the September 6, 2017 R&R and ORDERS that Plaintiff's complaint is DISMISSED pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e). The Court further ORDERS that Plaintiff's motions for Judicial Notice and Contempt and his petition for a Writ of Assistance are DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: October 26, 2017
