OPINION 

 Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff, an inmate, 

filed this lawsuit naming as defendant the judge in his 

pending state-court criminal case, challenging the 

constitutionality of several of the judge’s decisions, 

and seeking damages and dismissal of the criminal case. 

This lawsuit is now before the court on the 

recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge 

that plaintiff’s § 1983 claims be dismissed with 

prejudice, with the exception of plaintiff’s request 

for declaratory relief, which the magistrate judge 

recommends be dismissed without prejudice so that 

plaintiff may pursue his claims in the state courts.

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. 

 An appropriate judgment will be entered. 

 DONE, this the 7th day of March, 2016.
