Cunningham v. Henry
Trial Court Opinion
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO WESTERN DIVISION - CINCINNATI CAROL YVONNE CUNNINGHAM, : Case No. 1:24-cv-273 Plaintiff, Judge Matthew W. McFarland : Magistrate Judge Stephanie K. Bowman v. JERMISHA HENRY, Defendant.
ENTRY AND ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (Doc. 4)
This matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Stephanie K. Bowman (Doc. 4), to whom this case is referred pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 636(b). Magistrate Judge Bowman recommended that Plaintiff's complaint be dismissed with prejudice for failing to state a claim for relief. (Id. at Pg. ID 50.) Plaintiff filed a Notice, albeit untimely, after Magistrate Judge Bowman issued her Report. (Doc. 5.) Thus, the matter is ripe for review. In her Notice, which the Court construes as objections to the Report and Recommendation, Plaintiff discusses several issues involving her neighbors, insurance coverage, and healthcare. (See Notice, Doc. 5.) That said, she does not contest the Magistrate Judge’s reasoning or conclusions. This failure to identify specific issues in the Magistrate Judge’s Report is tantamount to a failure to object. Miller v. Currie,
50 F.3d 373, 380(6th Cir. 1995); Howard v. Sec’y of Health & Human Seros.,
932 F.2d 505, 509(6th Cir. 1991). In any event, the Court agrees that Plaintiff has not stated a claim for relief.
As required by
28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b), the Court has made a de novo review of this record. Upon review, the Court finds that Plaintiff's Objections (see Notice, Doc. 5) are not well-taken and are accordingly OVERRULED. Thus, the Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Bowman’s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 4) in its entirety and ORDERS the following: 1. The Complaint is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE; 2. The Court CERTIFIES pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(a) that, for the reasons discussed above, an appeal of this Order would not be taken in good faith and therefore DENIES Plaintiff leave to appeal in forma pauperis; and 3. This matter is TERMINATED from the Court’s docket. IT IS SO ORDERED. UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO Heth, wats fd) By: JUDGE MATTHEW W. McFARLAND
