MEMORANDUM ORDER

This action was commenced by Plaintiff's filing of a pro se civil rights complaint accompanied by a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis ("ifp motion"), on June 10, 2019. This matter was later assigned to the undersigned as presiding judge and referred to United States Magistrate Judge Richard A. Lanzillo, for all pretrial matters.

On October 15, 2019, Plaintiff filed a motion for temporary restraining order [ECF No. 14]. In this motion, Plaintiff seeks an order directing Defendants' counsel to refrain from sending legal mail to Smart Communications to avoid delays in his receipt of the mail.

On October 18, 2019, Judge Lanzillo issued a Report and Recommendation ("R&R") recommending that Plaintiffs motion for temporary restraining order be denied [ECF No. 15]. The original deadline for filing objections to the R&R was November 1, 2019, but was subsequently extended to November 29, 2019; nonetheless, no objections have been received.

After de novo review of Plaintiff's motion and other documents in the case, together with the report and recommendation, the following order is entered:

AND NOW, this 12th day of December, 2019;

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff's motion for temporary restraining order [ECF No. 14] is DENIED. The report and recommendation of Magistrate Judge Lanzillo, issued October 18, 2019 [ECF No. 15], is adopted as the opinion of the court.
