ORDER
W. KEITH WATKINS, Chief District Judge.
On February 25, 2016, the Magistrate Judge filed a Recommendation (Doc. # 15) to which Plaintiff timely filed an objection (Doc. # 17). The court has conducted an independent and de novo review of those portions of the Recommendation to which objection is made, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), and finds that the objection is without merit.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED as follows:
(1) Plaintiff's objection (Doc. # 17) is OVERRULED;
(2) The Recommendation (Doc. # 15) is ADOPTED to the extent that it recommends dismissal of this action for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction based upon the Rooker-Feldman doctrine;1
(3) Defendants' Motion to Dismiss (Doc. # 9) is GRANTED;
(4) This case is DISMISSED without prejudice for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction.
It is further ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion to Compel (Doc. # 16) is DENIED.
A separate final judgment will be entered.
FootNotes
1. Because subject-matter jurisdiction is lacking, the court need not address the Recommendation's alternative grounds for dismissal. See Casale v. Tillman, 558 F.3d 1258, 1259 n.1 (11th Cir. 2009).
