(Doc. 35). In the alternative, the magistrate judge recommended that the defendants' motion for summary judgment be granted and this action be dismissed with prejudice. (Id.). Although the parties were advised of their right to file specific written objections within fourteen days, no objections have been received by the court.

Accordingly, the defendants' motion to dismiss is due to be granted and the plaintiff's claims are due to be dismissed without prejudice pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a) for failing to exhaust administrative remedies. In the alternative, the defendants' motion for summary judgment is due to be granted on the merits and the plaintiff's claims are due to be dismissed with prejudice.
