LADD v. MITCHELL et al

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
PENSACOLA DIVISION
ANTHONY SAM LADD,
Plaintiff,
v. Case No. 3:26-cv-238-AW-ZCB
GENE MITCHELL, et al.,
Defendants.
_______________________________/
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
The magistrate judge issued a report and recommendation concluding the
court should dismiss for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. ECF No. 5. Plaintiff filed
no objection. Having considered the matter, I now adopt the report and
recommendation and incorporate it into this order. Plaintiff has not shown any basis
for this court to exercise jurisdiction. Although Plaintiff used a § 1983 form, he made
no effort to rely on § 1983 (or any other federal law) in his claims.
The clerk will enter a judgment that says, “This case is dismissed without
prejudice based on a lack of subject-matter jurisdiction.” The clerk will then close
the file.
SO ORDERED on March 17, 2026.
