ORDER

 This case is before the court on the Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (Doc. #83), 

entered on July 6, 2015, and the Plaintiff’s Objection (Doc. #87), filed on July 23, 2015. 

 The court has conducted an independent evaluation and de novo review of the 

Recommendation, the Objection, and the file in this case. The Objection relies on the same 

claims and arguments which were made to the Magistrate Judge and addressed at length in the 

Recommendation. 

 After a de novo review, the court agrees with the Recommendation’s findings that the 

Plaintiff has failed to demonstrate a genuine dispute of material fact as to the issue of deliberate 

indifference and also as to the complaint that his constitutional rights are being violated by 

assessment of a $3 co-payment for partial payment of costs attendant to each treatment for 

sinusitis. Therefore, Plaintiff’s Objection is OVERRULED, the court ADOPTS the thorough 

and well-reasoned Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, and it is hereby ORDERED as 

follows: 

 1. The Defendants’ Motions for Summary Judgment are GRANTED.
