OPINION 

 Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff Anthony 

Golston, a state inmate, filed this lawsuit against two 

correctional officers, claiming that defendant Matthew 

Enfinger used excessive force against him and that 

defendant Kerry Williams failed to protect him from 

Enfinger. This lawsuit is now before the court on the 

recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge, 

after an evidentiary hearing on the merits, that 

judgment be granted in favor of the correctional 

officers on all claims. There are no objections to the 

recommendation. After an independent and de novo

magistrate judge’s recommendation should be adopted. 

 An appropriate judgment will be entered. 

 DONE, this the 30th day of April, 2015.
