Plaintiff,

Plaintiff Mazen Khenaisser (“Plaintiff”) is proceeding pro se in this civil action. This

matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to Local Rule 302(c)(21).

On February 9, 2016, the magistrate judge filed Findings and Recommendations herein 

(ECF No. 24) which were served on the parties and which contained notice that any objections to 

the Findings and Recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. Plaintiff timely filed 

objections to the Findings and Recommendations. ECF No. 25.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 304, the 

Court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file,

including Plaintiff’s objections to the Findings and Recommendations, the Court finds the 

Findings and Recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.
