UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
WESTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
KENNETH SMITH,
Plaintiff,
v.
KALAMAZOO COUNTY CIRCUIT
COURT, et al.,
Defendants.
____________________________/
Case No. 1:25-cv-464
Hon. Hala Y. Jarbou
ORDER
On October 8, 2025, Magistrate Judge Ray Kent issued a report and recommendation
(R&R) that this action be dismissed because Smith’s complaint fails to state a claim. (ECF No. 7.)
The R&R was duly served on the parties. 	No objections have been filed, and the deadline for
doing so expired on October 22, 2025. On review, the Court concludes that the R&R correctly
analyzes the issues and makes a sound recommendation.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that the R&R (ECF No. 7) is APPROVED and ADOPTED as the
opinion of the Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Court declines to certify that an appeal would not
be taken in good faith. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3).
A judgment will issue in accordance with this Order.
