28 U.S.C. § 1915

(e)(2)(B)(i) and (ii).

1 R. Doc. 1. 2 R. Doc. 6. Plaintiff did not object to the R&R. Therefore, the Court reviews the R&R for clear error. See Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass'n,

(5th Cir. 1996) (en banc), superseded by statute on other grounds,

P. 72(b) advisory committee’s note (1983) (“When no timely objection is filed, the court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation.”). The Court finds no clear error. Accordingly, the Court adopts the Magistrate Judge’s R&R as its opinion. Plaintiffs complaint is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
