Jones v. Johnson

Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:24-cv-00038 Matthew Jones, Plaintiff, V. FNU Johnson et al., Defendants.

ORDER Plaintiff Matthew Jones, a prisoner proceeding pro se, filed this civil suit without paying the filing fee. The case was transferred to this court for proper venue and referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 636

(b). On April 22, 2024, the magistrate judge issued a report recom- mending that this case be dismissed without prejudice due to plain- tiff’s failure to comply with the court’s order to file an amended complaint and pay the filing fee or submit an application to proceed in forma pauperis. Docs. 4, 6. A copy of the report was mailed to plaintiff, who received it on April 25, 2024. Doc. 7. Plaintiff did not file written objections. 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

(5th 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 June 10, 2024.
