Rowell v. Vissa et al

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
Mesfen A. Rowell
v. 	Case No. 19-cv-419-JL
Sgt. FNU Vissa, Nurse FNU Bancroft,
Hillsborough County Department of Corrections
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Before the court is plaintiff Mesfen A. Rowell’s
motion/response to affirmative defenses (Doc. No. 34) and his
motion seeking entry of a default judgment or contempt (Doc. No.
33). 	Essentially for the reasons stated in defendants’
objections (Doc. Nos. 35, 36), including that an answer to the
complaint was filed within the time allowed, and because the
merits of the claims and affirmative defenses need not be the
subject of any dispositive ruling at this time, Mr. Rowell’s
motions (Doc. Nos. 33, 34) should be denied.
Any objections to this Report and Recommendation must be
filed within fourteen days of receipt of this notice. 	See Fed.
R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2). 	That period may be extended upon motion.
Failure to file objections within the specified time waives the
right to appeal the district court’s order. 	See Santos-Santos
v. Torres-Centeno, 842 F.3d 163, 168 (1st Cir. 2016).
