Case No.: 5:19-cv-01051-LSC-JEO

MEMORANDUM OPINION

The magistrate judge filed a report and recommendation on December 23, 

2019, recommending this action be dismissed without prejudice pursuant to 28 

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

(Doc. 6). Although the report and recommendation was not returned as 

undeliverable, and the plaintiff had not notified the court of any change of address, 

on January 21, 2020, the magistrate judge noted the Alabama Department of 

Corrections’ inmate locator website reflected the plaintiff had been transferred to 

Bullock Correctional Facility and ordered that an additional copy of the report and 

recommendation be sent to the plaintiff at his updated address. (Doc. 7). Both 

copies of the report and recommendation served on the plaintiff advised him of his 

right to file objections within fourteen (14) days. That time has expired and no 

objections have been received by the court.
