UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
Case No. 26-cv-23544-BLOOM/Elfenbein
ALYSSA DOWLING,
Plaintiff,
v.
ERIC KOMITEE,
Defendant.
_________________________/
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
THIS CAUSE is before the Court upon Plaintiff Alyssa Dowling’s (“Plaintiff”)
Complaint, ECF No. [ 1], Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis , ECF No. [3], and
Motion to Amend, ECF No. [4] . The matter was assigned to Magistrate Judge Marty Fulgueria
Elfenbein pursuant to Administrative Order 2025- 11. Because Judge Elfenbein did not possess
authority to issue a dispositive order in this case, she issued a Report and Recommendation
(“R&R”) recommending that Plaintiff’s Complaint be dismissed with prejudice because Plaintiff
fails to state a plausible claim for relief and has filed this lawsuit as part of a malicious, nationwide
mass filing of the same threadbare Complaint and amendment would b e futile and unwarranted.
ECF No. [6]. She also recommended denying Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma
Pauperis, ECF No. [3], and Motion to Amend, ECF No. [4].
The Report and Recommendation advised the parties they had “fourteen (14) days from
the date of being served with a copy of this Report and Recommendation” to “file written
objections.” Id. at 8. To date, the parties have not filed objections, nor have they sought additional
time to file objections. Nonetheless, the Court has conducted a de novo review of Judge Elfenbein’s

Report and Recommendation and the record and is otherwise fully advised in the premises. See
Williams v. McNeil, 557 F.3d 1287, 1291 (11th Cir. 2009) (citing 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)). Upon
review, the Court finds Judge Elfenbein’s Report and Recommendation to be well reasoned and
correct. The Court therefore agrees with the analysis and concludes that Plaintiff’s Complaint is
dismissed with prejudice, her Motion for Leave to Proceed In Forma Pauperis is denied, and her
Motion for Leave to Amend is denied.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows:
1. The Report and Recommendation, ECF No. [6], is ADOPTED.
2. Plaintiff’s Complaint, ECF No. [1], is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
3. Plaintiff’s Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis, ECF No. [3], is DENIED.
4. Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend, ECF No. [4], is DENIED.
5. To the extent not otherwise disposed of, any scheduled hearings are CANCELED,
all pending motions are DENIED AS MOOT, and all deadlines are
TERMINATED.
6. The Clerk of Court shall administratively CLOSE this case.
DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers in Miami, Florida, on June 12, 2026.
