CIVIL ACTION NO. 2:25-CV-00144
ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM & RECOMMENDATION
Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Jason Libby's Memorandum and Recommendation
("M&R"). (D.E. 16). Prior to issuing the M&R, Judge Libby held a Spears hearing. July 30, 2025
Minute Entry. The M&R recommends that the Court dismiss Plaintiffs constitutional claims with
prejudice for failure to state a claim and/or as frivolous and impose a "strike" under 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(g). (D.E. 16 , p. 14).
The parties were provided proper notice of, and the opportunity to object to, the Magistrate
Judge 's M&R. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); General Order No. 2002-13. No
objection has been filed. When no timely objection has been filed, the district court need only
determine whether the Magistrate Judge 's M&R is clearly erroneous or contrary to law. United
States v. 	Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219, 1221 (5th Cir. 1989) (per curiam); Powell v. Litton Loan

J.) (citation omitted).
Having reviewed the proposed findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge, the filings
of the parties, the record, and the applicable law, and finding that the M&R is not clearly erroneous
or contrary to law, the Court ADOPTS the M&R in its entirety. (D.E. 16). Accordingly, the Court
