St. #9 Overland Park, KS 66213 DAVID N. HURD United States District Judge DECISION and ORDER Pro se plaintiff Patrick di Santo brought this civil action against defendants Ulster County Family Court and H. Judge Daniel K. Lalor. On December 20, 2019, the Honorable Daniel J. Stewart, United States Magistrate Judge, advised by Report-Recommendation that plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed with prejudice as to all claims seeking to void a New York State court judgment and all personal capacity claims against defendant Lalor, but that plaintiff be granted leave to replead any claim under the Americans with Disabilities Act against an appropriate defendant. No objections to the Report-Recommendation were filed but before the Report-Recommendation was adopted, plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint. Magistrate Judge Stewart thereafter reviewed plaintiff's Amended Complaint and on February 5, 2020, issued a new Report-Recommendation, thus mooting the December 20, 2019 Report-Recommendation. In the February 5, 2020 Report-Recommendation, Magistrate Judge Stewart advised that plaintiff's Amended Complaint be dismissed but that plaintiff be granted a final opportunity to replead. No objections to the February 5, 2020

Report-Recommendation have been filed. Based upon a careful review of the entire file and the recommendations of the Magistrate Judge, the February 5, 2020 Report-Recommendation is accepted in whole. See

28 U.S.C. § 636

(b)(1). Therefore, it is ORDERED that 1. Plaintiff's Amended Complaint is DISMISSED with leave to amend; 2. Plaintiff is provided an opportunity to file a proposed Second Amended Complaint within thirty (30) days of the date of this Decision and Order to correct the

deficiencies identified in the Report-Recommendation; 3. If plaintiff timely files a proposed Second Amended Complaint within thirty (30) days of the date of this Decision and Order curing the deficiencies noted in the Report- Recommendation, the file be forwarded to United States Magistrate Judge Daniel J. Stewart for further review; and 4. If plaintiff fails to file a proposed Second Amended Complaint within thirty (30) days of the date of this Decision and Order, the Amended Complaint will be DISMISSED IN ITS ENTIRETY as against all defendants without further order.
