ORDER DISMISSING ACTION AND

DIRECTING JUDGMENT FOR

DEFENDANTS 

On August 24, 2005, the United States Magistrate Judge

recommended that this action be dismissed because of plaintiff's

court concurs with the recommendation and dismisses this action

for the reasons set forth in the recommendation.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
