MICHAEL THOMAS, Plaintiff, v. GRUNDFOS, CBS et al., Defendants
ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM AND RECOMMENDATION AND ORDER DISMISSING WITHOUT PREJUDICE
This court has reviewed the Memorandum and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge signed on November 5, 2018, and made a de novo determination. Rule 72(b), FED. R. CIV. P.; 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C); United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219 (5th Cir. 1989). Based on the pleadings, the record, and the applicable law, the court adopts the Memorandum and Recommendation as this court's Memorandum and Order. This court finds and concludes that the motion to dismiss was properly granted and the claims against Mads Nipper and Henrik Christiansen properly dismissed without prejudice. The Magistrate Judge's recommendation to dismiss all claims against defendants Nipper and Christiansen based on lack of personal jurisdiction is consistent with and supported by the applicable legal standards. No objections were filed. The defendants' motion to dismiss, (Docket Entry No. 35), is granted.
SIGNED on December 6, 2018, at Houston, Texas.
