Reported / Citable
Background
Plaintiff Lakisha Green moved for a temporary restraining order. The district court had referred the matter to a U.S. magistrate judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636.
On July 30, 2026, the magistrate judge issued proposed findings of fact and recommended denying the motion. Green filed objections to that report and recommendation.
The Court’s Holding
The district court conducted a de novo review of Green’s objections and the portions of the report to which she specifically objected.
The court concluded that the magistrate judge’s findings and conclusions were correct and that Green’s objections lacked merit as to the magistrate judge’s ultimate findings. It adopted the report’s findings and conclusions and denied Green’s motion for a temporary restraining order.
Key Takeaways
- The court reviewed de novo the portions of the magistrate judge’s report challenged by specific objections.
