ORDER 
Defendants previously filed a Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint. (Dkt. No. 
34.) Magistrate Judge Payne entered a Report and Recommendation (Dkt. No. 
157), recommending grant in part of Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss. Because no objections have 
been filed and for the reasons set forth in the Report and Recommendation, the 
Recommendation is ADOPTED. 
It is therefore ORDERED that the Motion to Dismiss (Dkt. No. 34) is GRANTED as to 
Plaintiff’s breach of contract and conspiracy claims (Counts III-IV of the First Amended 
Complaint), and otherwise DENIED. 
So Ordered this
