MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

Plaintiff, Albert Flowers, Jr., a former inmate confined at FCI Beaumont Low, proceeding

pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this Bivens-type1 action against defendants Latigdra Brown,

FNU Lucas, Margarita Laguna, and FNU Bowers.

The court referred this matter to the Honorable Keith Giblin, United States Magistrate

Judge, at Beaumont, Texas, for consideration pursuant to applicable laws and orders of this court.

The Magistrate Judge recommends dismissing the civil action as frivolous and for failure to state

a claim (docket entry no. 38).

The court has received and considered the Report and Recommendation of United States

Magistrate Judge filed pursuant to such referral, along with the record, and pleadings. No

objections to the Report and Recommendation have been filed to date.

1 In Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), the

Supreme Court recognized an individual’s right to recover damages from federal officials for violation of

constitutional rights.

ORDER

Accordingly, the findings of fact and conclusions of law of the Magistrate Judge are correct

and the report of the Magistrate Judge is ADOPTED. A Final Judgment will be entered in

accordance with the recommendations of the Magistrate Judge.

SIGNED at Beaumont, Texas, this 23rd day of March, 2021.
