ORDER

Now before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 26) of the 

Honorable Mark E. Ford, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of 

Arkansas. Objections to the Report and Recommendation were originally due on 

December 30, 2024. Plaintiff Aiden Jones requested an extension of time to file 

objections on December 19, and his request was granted. See Doc. 28. His new 

deadline was January 17, 2025. No objections were filed by the new deadline . 

The Court has reviewed this case and, being well and sufficiently advised, finds 

as follows: the Report and Recommendation is proper and is hereby ADOPTED IN ITS 

ENTIRETY. Accordingly, upon preservice screening, IT IS ORDERED that: (1) the case 

is DISMISSED pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1) for failure to state a claim upon 

which relief may be granted; (2) Plaintiff/Petitioner is warned that, in the future, this 

dismissal may be counted as a strike for purposes of 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) and thus, the

Clerk is directed to place a § 1915(g) strike flag on the case for future judicial

consideration; and (3) the Court certifies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3) that any 

appeal from this dismissal would not be taken in good faith.

IT IS SO ORDERED on this 21st day of January, 2025.
