On April 4, 2023, Magistrate Judge Curits Ivy, Jr., issued a report recommending that the case be dismissed and the pending motions be denied as moot because Plaintiff has abandoned his case.

474 U.S. 140, 149(1985)). There is no clear error in the report. Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Ivy’s Report and Recommendation, ECF No. 24, is ADOPTED. Further, it is ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss, ECF No. 18, is DENIED AS MOOT. Further, it is ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion to Extend Scheduling Order, ECF No. 19, is DENIED AS MOOT. Further, it is ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment, ECF No. 20, is DENIED AS MOOT.
