The opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

CASE NO. 25-61332-CIV-SMITH/VALLE

LUTRICIA LUSHAN BROWN ALLEN,

Plaintiff,

vs.

STATE OF FLORIDA, ET AL.,

Defendants.

/

ORDER AFFIRMING AND ADOPTING REPORT OF MAGISTRATE JUDGE

This matter is before the Court upon Magistrate Judge Valle’s Report and

Recommendation to District Judge [DE 32], in which she recommends denying Plaintiff’s

Emergency Demand for Order of Preliminary Injunction to Halt All “State of Florida” Court

Proceedings in Case 25000388MM10A and Protect Constitutional Rights Under 28 U.S.C. § 1651,

28 U.S.C. § 2283, and 28 U.S.C. § 1361 [DE 27] and dismissing Plaintiff’s Supplemental and

Amended Civil Rights Complaint [DE 28] as untimely and procedurally deficient. Plaintiff has

filed “Measured Objections to the Report and Recommendation Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)”

[DE 33].

Under Rule 4(b) of the Magistrate Judge Rules of the Southern District of Florida, written

objections to a Report and Recommendation “shall specifically identify the portions of the

proposed findings, recommendations or report to which objection is made, the specific basis for

such objections, and supporting legal authority.” See also Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 F. App’x 781,

783 (11th Cir. 2006) (stating that an objection to a magistrate judge’s findings and

recommendations “shall specifically identify the portions of the proposed findings and

recommendation to which objection is made and the specific basis for objection”) (citation

omitted). Plaintiff’s Objections are not proper objections because they do not specifically identify

the portions of the proposed findings, recommendations or report to which objection is made, the

specific basis for such objections, and supporting legal authority. Consequently, the Court will

not directly address Plaintiff’s Objections and the Objections are overruled.

Additionally, the Omnibus Order on Procedural Motions and Dismissing Complaint [DE

19] dismissed Plaintiff’s Complaint for Violation of Civil Rights [DE 1] and gave Plaintiff until

November 21, 2025, to file an Amended Complaint in compliance with the Omnibus Order. The

Omnibus Order warned that “Failure to timely file the Amended Complaint will result in dismissal

of this case.” (Omnibus Order at 11 (emphasis added).) Plaintiff filed her Supplemental &

Amended Civil Rights Complaint in Addition to and in Support of the Original Federal Complaint

[DE 28] on November 26, 2025. Thus, Plaintiff’s Supplemental & Amended Complaint was

untimely. Pursuant to the Omnibus Order, dismissal of this action is appropriate.

Moreover, a review of Plaintiff’s Emergency Demand for Order of Preliminary Injunction

to Halt All “State of Florida” Court Proceedings in Case 25000388MM10A and Protect

Constitutional Rights Under 28 U.S.C. § 1651, 28 U.S.C. § 2283, and 28 U.S.C. § 1361 [DE 27]

indicates that Plaintiff has failed to meet the requirements for the issuance of a preliminary

injunction. A review of Plaintiff’s Supplemental & Amended Complaint indicates that Plaintiff

failed to correct the deficiencies of her initial Complaint for Violation of Civil Rights, which the

Court dismissed for procedural deficiencies, failure to state a claim, and being a shotgun pleading.

Having reviewed, de novo, the Report and Recommendation, Plaintiff’s Objections, and

the record, it is

ORDERED that:

1) Magistrate Judge Valle’s Report and Recommendation to District Judge [DE 32] is

AFFIRMED and ADOPTED and incorporated by reference into this Court’s Order.

2) Plaintiff's Supplemental and Amended Civil Rights Complaint [DE 28] is

DISMISSED.

3) Plaintiff's Emergency Demand for Order of Preliminary Injunction to Halt All

“State of Florida” Court Proceedings in Case 25000388MM10A and Protect Constitutional Rights

Under 28 U.S.C. § 1651, 28 U.S.C. § 2283, and 28 U.S.C. § 1361 [DE 27] is DENIED.

4) Plaintiff's “Measured Objections to the Report and Recommendation Pursuant to

28 US.C. § 636(b)(1)” [DE 33] are OVERRULED.

5) All pending motions not otherwise ruled upon are DENIED as moot.

6) This case is CLOSED.

DONE and ORDERED in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this 30th day of January, 2026.
