OPINION 

 Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff, a state 

prisoner, filed this lawsuit complaining that his 

custody level was raised as a result of a disciplinary 

incident in which he was found not guilty. This 

lawsuit is now before the court on the recommendation 

of the United States Magistrate Judge that plaintiff’s 

case be dismissed with prejudice. There are no 

objections to the recommendation. After an independent 

and de novo review of the record, the court concludes 

that the magistrate judge’s recommendation should be

adopted, except that the dismissal will be without 

prejudice. 

 An appropriate judgment will be entered. 

 DONE, this the 2nd day of February, 2016.
