Case No.: 2:12-cv-04061-RDP-RRA

TRANSFER ORDER

The Magistrate Judge filed a Report and Recommendation (Doc. #3) on December 13, 2012,

recommending that this action be transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle

District of Alabama. In particular, the Magistrate Judge found that Plaintiff complains about events

occurring in the Elmore County Jail in Wetumpka, Alabama, which is located in the Middle District

of Alabama. (Doc. #3). Also, the Magistrate Judge found that no Defendant is located in the

Northern District of Alabama. (Doc. #3).

Having now carefully reviewed and considered de novo all of the materials in the court file,1

including the Report and Recommendation, the court is of the opinion that the Report is due to be,

and hereby is ADOPTED, and the Recommendation is ACCEPTED. Accordingly, it is hereby

ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that, in the interest of justice, this action is

TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Alabama. See 28

The court notes that it was not required to conduct an independent review of the Report and 1

Recommendation in this case because no party has filed objections. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Thomas

v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 150 (1985) ("It does not appear that Congress intended to require district court

review of a magistrate's factual or legal conclusions, under a de novo or any other standard, when

neither party objects to those findings."). Nonetheless, the court has carefully reviewed the

Magistrate Judge's Report and agrees with his conclusions.
