portions of the Recommendation to which objection is made. See 28 U.S.C. 

§ 636(b). Based upon that review, it is ORDERED as follows:

1. Plaintiff’s objection (Doc. # 42) is OVERRULED;

2. the Recommendation (Doc. # 41) is ADOPTED; and

3. Plaintiff’s consolidated actions are DISMISSED without prejudice 

based upon Plaintiff’s lack of standing to pursue the causes of action he asserts in 

his complaint or those he seeks to assert by amendment against Defendants.

A final judgment will be entered separately.
