ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM AND RECOMMENDATION
Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Jason B. Libby’s Memorandum and
Recommendation (M&R), entered on January 30, 2020. (D.E. 15). The M&R recommends
that the Court deny Plaintiffs motions to reconsider the dismissal of this case. (D.E. 9, 10,
11, 12). Plaintiff timely filed a motion to reconsider the M&R, which the Court interprets
as objections to the M&R, on February 13, 2020. (D.E. 17).
Plaintiffs objections challenge the outcome of the orders and recommendations
issued by the Magistrate Judge and this Court in this case. Plaintiff does so by raising the
same arguments he has made throughout this case, focusing primarily on the argument that
Judge Ellington lacks immunity. (D.E. 17, p. 4). Plaintiff also attempts to relitigate claims
raised in previous cases numbered 2:17-CV-48 and 2:19-CV-16. See (D.E. 17). After
careful review, the Court finds that neither the motions to reconsider nor the objections
clearly establish a manifest error of law or fact or present newly discovered evidence. See
Schiller v. Physicians Res. Group, Inc., 342 F.3d 563, 567 (Sth Cir. 2003). Plaintiff has
presented nothing to call into question this Court’s order of dismissal. Accordingly, the
1/2
Court OVERRULES Plaintiff's objections.
Thus, after reviewing the facts, conclusions of law, and recommendation set forth
in the M&R, as well as Plaintiffs objections and all other relevant documents in the record,
and having made a de novo disposition of the portions of the M&R to which the objections
were directed, the Court OVERRULES Plaintiffs objections. The Court ADOPTS as its
own the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge. Per the Court’s previous order
(D.E. 8), this case remains dismissed with prejudice.
SIGNED and ORDERED this Z/ $ day of Februayy 2020.
