OPINION

Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff filed this 

lawsuit complaining about being wrongfully fired from 

his job in the receiving area of the prison when he 

tried to help other inmates receive mattresses. This 

lawsuit is now before the court on the recommendation 

of the United States Magistrate Judge that plaintiff’s 

claims be dismissed without prejudice. There are no 

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.
