OPINION

Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff, a state 

prisoner, filed this excessive-force lawsuit contending 

that defendant Officer Moody needlessly caused a police 

dog to bite and injure him. 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.
