OPINION

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

prisoner, filed this lawsuit asserting discrimination 

and violation of his constitutional rights by police 

and his former attorney in connection with a criminal 

investigation and prosecution. This lawsuit is now 

before the court on the recommendation of the United 

States Magistrate Judge that plaintiff’s case be 

dismissed. Also before the court are plaintiff’s 

objections to the recommendation. After an independent 

and de novo review of the record, the court concludes 

that plaintiff’s objections should be overruled and the

magistrate judge’s recommendation adopted.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 28th day of November, 2016.
