IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

TEXARKANA DIVISION

SAMUEL SNOWDEN PLAINTIFF

VS. Case No. 05-CV-4066

POULAN/WEEDEATER DEFENDANT

ORDER

Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation filed May 17, 2006 by the Honorable

Bobby E. Shepherd, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas. (Doc. 6) 

Plaintiff Samuel Snowden has timely filed his objections to the Report and Recommendation. (Doc. 7) 

Snowden has filed a civil action under the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) and Title VII of the

Civil Rights Act. The Court provisionally filed plaintiff in forma pauperis (“IFP”) application and

complaint subject to a determination of whether he should be granted IFP status and whether his

complaint should be served on Defendant.

Judge Shepherd recommends granting Snowden’s IFP application and dismissing his complaint

as untimely and thus frivolous. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(i)-(iii) (IFP action, or any portion thereof,

may be dismissed on such grounds at any time). After reviewing the record de novo, the Court adopts

the Report and Recommendation as its own. The Court need not recite a lengthy review of the Report

and Recommendation or Snowden’s objections. Snowden delayed bringing his EEOC charge

approximately 15 years. His claims under the ADA and Title VII are clearly untimely and should be

dismissed. The Court finds Snowden’s IFP application should be and hereby is granted and that

Snowden’s complaint should be and hereby is dismissed with prejudice. See 28 U.S.C. §

1915(e)(2)(B)(i)-(iii). 

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 13 day of June, 2006. th
