District Court, E.D. Texas

Britt v. Gregg County Sheriff Office

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:23-cv-00377 Matthew Wayne Britt, Plaintiff, V. Gregg County Sheriff Office, Defendant.

ORDER Plaintiff Matthew Wayne Britt, proceeding pro se, filed this civil rights lawsuit under

42 U.S.C. § 1983

while he was an inmate of the Gregg County Jail. The case was referred to United States Magis- trate Judge K. Nicole Mitchell pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 636

(b). On November 9, 2023, the magistrate judge issued a report rec- ommending that this case be dismissed without prejudice for failure to comply with the court’s order to pay an initial, partial filing fee. Doc. 9. A copy of the report was mailed to plaintiff, but it was re- turned as undeliverable, indicating that plaintiff is no longer in the jail. Doc. 10. Plaintiff did not file written objections and has not no- tified the court of his new address. When no party objects to the magistrate judge’s report and rec- ommendation, the court reviews it only for clear error. See Douglass vy. United Servs. Auto. Ass’n,

79 F.3d 1415, 1420

(Sth Cir. 1996). Hav- ing reviewed the magistrate judge’s report, and being satisfied that it contains no clear error, the court accepts its findings and recommen- dation. This case is dismissed without prejudice. So ordered by the court on December 20, 2023. fold BARKER United States District Judge
