Senechal. Doc. No. 15. Judge Senechal denied Plaintiff Joyanta Banerjee’s request to withdraw his consent to magistrate judge jurisdiction and found as moot the appeal to the chief district judge. Id. The Court has reviewed the order and recommendation de novo, the relevant case law, and the entire record, and finds the order and recommendation to be persuasive and legally correct. Under

(c)(4), extraordinary circumstances are required to withdraw consent to magistrate judge jurisdiction. Here, it appears that Banerjee’s request to withdraw jurisdiction is primarily based on disagreements with the Court’s decisions. But adverse rulings do not constitute a basis for withdrawing magistrate judge jurisdiction. See Mello v. Unum Corp., No. 4:13CV2543,

, at *1 (E.D. Mo. Feb. 3, 2014). Given that, the Court ADOPTS the order and recommendation (Doc. No. 15) in its entirety and agrees with the decision to DENY Banerjee’s request to withdraw magistrate judge jurisdiction and FIND AS MOOT his appeal to the chief district judge. IT IS SO ORDERED.
