TAD HUSTMAN, Sheriff Department/Drug
Task Force; JOSH POLLOCK, Sheriff
Department; DERRICK HILL; OFFICER
VORHEES; JAMES SLAUGHTER, Drug

ORDER
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation filed on February 9, 2026, by the
Honorable Spencer G. Singleton, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of
Arkansas. (ECF No. 33). Judge Singleton recommends that the Motion to Dismiss for Failure to
Prosecute (ECF No. 28) filed by Separate Defendants Derrick Hill, Tad Hustman, Lacy
Mondragon, Josh Pollock, and Officer Vorhees be denied. Judge Singleton found that Plaintiff is
attempting to prosecute this matter and that dismissal of his case is not warranted at this time.
Separate Defendants have not objected to the Report and Recommendation, and the time
to respond has passed. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Upon review, finding no clear error on the face
of the record and that Judge Singleton’s reasoning is sound, the Court adopts the Report and
Recommendation (ECF No. 33) in toto. Accordingly, the Court finds that Separate Defendants’
Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 28) is hereby DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED, this 6th day of March, 2026.
