Ora Joseph Donaldson, Jr., Plaintiff, v. State of Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections, et al., Defendants.
Magistrate Judge Bowman
ORDER
MICHAEL H. WATSON, JUDGE
Magistrate Judge Bowman issued a Report and Recommendations (“R&R”) after performing an initial screen of Plaintiff's Amended Complaint (as supplemented) in this prisoner civil rights case. R&R, ECF No. 15.
The R&R recommends dismissing with prejudice Plaintiff's federal claims related to the Correctional Reception Center (“CRC"), dismissing without prejudice Plaintiff's state-law claims related to CRC, and severing and dismissing without prejudice Plaintiff's claims related to the North Central Correctional Complex (“NCCC”). Id. at 6. The R&R notified Plaintiff of his right to object to the recommendations contained therein and that failure to object may forfeit rights on appeal. Id. at 12.
The deadline for objecting has passed, and Plaintiff did not object. Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS the R&R. Plaintiff's federal claims relating to CRC are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. The Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff's state-law claims relating to CRC, and those claims are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. The Court SEVERS and DISMISSES WITHOUT PREJUDICE Plaintiff's claims relating to NCCC.
The Clerk shall enter judgment accordingly and terminate this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
