Date Filed Document Text
November 4, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 58 DECISION AND ORDER; CERTIFICATE TO THE COURT OF APPEALS - In certifying that Plaintiff's prior appeal was not taken in objective good faith, the Magistrate Judge noted that the dismissal at that point in time was based on "straightforward a pplications on well-established law: failure to exhaust administrative remedies and obtain a right to sue letter, failure to file within the statute of limitations, and suit against individuals who are not employers within the meaning of federal law for the purpose for which they were sued." None of those considerations have changed. In addition, Plaintiff has not given any reasons why the Court's decision on his Motion for Relief from Judgment is erroneous. Mr. Richardson is urged to file his application for in forma pauperis status with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati as promptly as possible. Filing with the Clerk of this Court is not a substitute for filing with the Clerk of that Court. Signed by Magistrate Judge Michael R Merz on 11/4/2013.

May 11, 2010 Opinion or Order Filing 23 ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS - This case is before the Court on Defendants' Motion to Dismiss (Doc. No. 7). Plaintiff opposed the Motion and sought leave to file an amended complaint (Doc. No. 10). The Magistrate Judge recommended granting the Motion to Dismiss (Report and Recommendations, Doc. No. 15) and denied leave to amend on grounds of futility (Doc. No. 16). The parties then unanimously consented to plenary magistrate judge jurisdiction and the case was referred on that basis (Doc. Nos. 17, 18). Plaintiff then objected that the Motion to Dismiss was untimely (Doc. No. 20), but the Court rejected that argument (Doc. No. 21). No other objections have been filed to the Report and Recommendations and the time for objec tion expired on May 10, 2010.

The Clerk will enter final judgment accordingly. Signed by Magistrate Judge Michael R Merz on 5/11/2010. (kpf1)
