Givens v. Watson
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:20-cv-00522 Henry Lee Givens, Plaintiff, V. Tom B. Watson, et al., Defendants.
ORDER Plaintiff Henry Lee Givens, proceeding pro se, filed this civil rights lawsuit pursuant to
42 U.S.C. § 1983. Doc. 1. He also filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis. Doc. 4. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge K. Nicole Mitchell, who issued a report and recommendation conclud- ing that plaintiff's complaint should be dismissed with preju- dice for purposes of in forma pauperis proceedings pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). Doc. 3. Plaintiff did not object to the report and recommendation. When a party fails to object to a magistrate judge’s report, 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. Plaintiff's complaint is dis- missed with prejudice for purposes of in forma pauperis pro- ceedings pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(g). Plaintiff may resume his lawsuit if he pays the entire filing fee of $400 within 30 days after the entry of the final judgment. So ordered by the court on November 2, 2020. feeb BARKER United States District Judge
