UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
NORTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
PANAMA CITY DIVISION
TRAVIS J. MOODY,
Petitioner,
v. Case No. 5:26-cv-43-TKW-MJF
SCOTT BESSENT, et al.,
Respondents.
/
ORDER
This case is before the Court based on the magistrate judge’s Report and
Recommendation (R&R) (Doc. 12) and Petitioner’s objections (Doc. 13). The Court
reviewed the issues raised in the objections de novo under 28 U.S.C. §636(b)(1) and
Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3),1 and based on that review, the Court agrees with the
magistrate judge’s determination that this case should be dismissed under the “three-
strikes statute,” 28 U.S.C. §1915(g).
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that:
1 It is difficult to discern what portions of the R&R that Petitioner is actually objecting to
because he repeatedly states that “accepts for value” the conclusions (which he refers to as
“offers”) that the magistrate judge reached in the R&R. Moreover, the “wherefore” clause in the
objections asking that the recommendation be “reconsidered” includes nonsensical argument about
the consequences of not doing so.
