MEMORANDUM OF OPINION

The magistrate judge filed a report and recommendation on June 1, 2015,

recommending that this action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 be dismissed under

28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1) for failing to state a claimupon which relief may be granted. 

(Doc. 23). The plaintiff filed objections to the report and recommendation on July

22, 2015. (Doc. 28). 

In his objections, the plaintiff merely repeats his assertions that the defendants

violated his constitutional rights without sufficient factual allegations to show that

he is entitled to relief. (Doc. 28 at 1-2). Having carefully reviewed and considered

de novo all the materials in the court file, including the report and recommendation

and the plaintiff’s objections, the court finds that the magistrate judge’sreport is due

to be and is hereby ADOPTED and the recommendation is ACCEPTED. 

Accordingly, the complaint is due to be dismissed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
