McClenan v. Gregg County Sheriff's Office
McClenan v. Gregg County Sheriff's Office
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:20-cv-00412 Mark McClenan, Plaintiff, V. Gregg County Sheriff’s Office, et al., Defendants.
ORDER On July 27, 2020, plaintiff Mark McClenan, proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this civil rights lawsuit pursu- ant to
42 U.S.C. § 1983. Doc. 1. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge K. Nicole Mitchell pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 636(b). Doc. 3. On July 29, 2020, Judge Mitchell in- structed plaintiff to pay an initial partial filing fee. Doc. 4. Plaintiff failed to do so. On September 10, 2020, Judge Mitchell entered a report recommending that plaintiff's case be dismissed without prej- udice for want of prosecution and failure to obey an order. Doc. 7. Plaintiff did not object to the report and recommenda- tion. When a party fails to object to a magistrate judge’s re- port, the court reviews the record only for clear error. See Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass'n,
79 F.3d 1415, 1420(5th Cir. 1996). Finding no clear error in the report, the court accepts its findings and recommendation. The complaint is dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute and for failure to comply with a court order. So ordered by the court on November 2, 2020.
