Sanders v. Lusk

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:20-cv-00079 Jimmy Rontrail Sanders, Plaintiff, V. C. Lusk, et al., Defendants.

Before BARKER, District Judge ORDER Plaintiff Jimmy Sanders, an inmate confined at the Gregg County Jail, proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed the above-styled and numbered civil rights lawsuit pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The complaint was referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love, who issued a report and recommendation (Doc. 17) that defendants’ motion to stay be granted, and the above-styled action be administratively closed and placed on the inactive docket because of plaintiff's pending prosecution. A copy of this report was mailed to plaintiff, and he has filed no objections. See Douglass v. United States Servs. Auto. Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1420 (5th Cir. 1996) (en banc).

There being no objections, and the court being satisfied that the report contains no clear error, the court adopts the findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge as the findings and conclusions of the court. Accordingly, defendants’ motion to stay (Doc. 13) is granted and the above- styled civil action is administratively closed, subject to reopening upon further order of the court. Any motion that may be pending in this action shall be terminated pending reopening of the case. The clerk of court is directed to close the case.

So ordered by the court on June 15, 2020.
