OPINION

Plaintiff George Pugh filed this lawsuit asserting 

claims of racial discrimination in promotions against 

the defendants, the chief and assistant police chief of 

the Phenix City Police Department, where plaintiff used 

to work. This lawsuit is now before the court on the 

recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge 

that plaintiff’s case be dismissed for failure to 

prosecute and failure to comply with the orders of this 

court. There are no objections to the recommendation. 

After an independent and de novo review of the record, 

Case 3:14-cv-00178-MHT-TFM Document 32 Filed 02/22/16 Page 1 of 2
the court concludes that the magistrate judge’s 

recommendation should be adopted.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 22nd day of February, 2016.

 /s/ Myron H. Thompson___ 

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
