OPINION

Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff, a state 

prisoner, filed this lawsuit complaining about an 

allegedly fraudulent submission of a plea of not guilty 

and waiver of arraignment in his criminal case. This 

lawsuit is now before the court on the recommendation 

of the United States Magistrate Judge that plaintiff’s 

case be dismissed. Also before the court are 

plaintiff’s objections to the recommendation. After an 

independent and de novo review of the record, the court 

concludes that the magistrate judge’s recommendation 

should be adopted.
