RODERICK ERNEST GRAY PLAINTIFF

JASON WATSON (Sheriff, Clark County Detention Center) DEFENDANT

ORDER This is a civil rights action brought pursuant to

. At all times relevant, Plaintiff was an inmate, incarcerated at the Clark County Detention Center. The Court referred this case to the Honorable Barry A. Bryant, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas, for the purpose of conducting preservice screening pursuant to the Prison Litigation Reform Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. Before the Court is Judge Bryant’s Report and Recommendation on the matter. (ECF No. 13). Judge Bryant recommends that Plaintiff’s conditions of confinement claims brought pursuant to section 1983 be dismissed without prejudice because Plaintiff has failed to allege facts upon which relief can be granted. Plaintiff has filed objections to the Report and Recommendation. (ECF No. 14). However, Plaintiff’s objections are not specific enough to trigger de novo review by this court.1 Hudson v. Gammon,

(8th Cir. 1995). Therefore, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 28) in toto. Accordingly, Plaintiff’s Complaint (ECF No. 1) is hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT PREDJUDICE. Moreover, the Clerk is DIRECTED to place a section 1915(g) strike flag on the case. IT IS SO ORDERED, this 20th day of August, 2019.
