Moody v. Crumbaker

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:20-cv-00243 Corey Moody, Plaintiff, V. Brent Crumbaker, Defendant.

ORDER Plaintiff Corey Moody, proceeding pro se and in forma pau- perts, filed this civil-rights lawsuit against defendant Brent Crumbaker, pursuant to

42 U.S.C. § 1983

. This case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge K. Nicole Mitchell. The mag- istrate judge issued a report recommending that defendant’s mo- tion for summary judgment (Doc. 30) limited to the exhaustion of administrative remedies should be granted and plaintiff’s claims against defendant should be dismissed without prejudice for fail- ure to exhaust his administrative remedies pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a). Doc. 31. No objections were filed to the magistrate judge’s report. When there have been no timely objections to a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, the court reviews it only for clear error. See Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass’n,

79 F.3d 1415, 1420

(5th Cir. 1996). Having reviewed the magistrate judge’s re- port, and being satisfied that it contains no clear error, the court accepts its findings and recommendation. Defendant’s motion for summary judgment limited to the exhaustion of administrative remedies (Doc. 30) is granted. Plaintiff’s civil-rights action is dis- missed without prejudice for failure to exhaust his administrative remedies pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a).

So ordered by the court on September 10, 2021. fab BARKER United States District Judge
