Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge, filed
in the above-captioned cause on May 18, 2026. (ECF No. 84). To date, no objections to the Report and

a copy to the party’s last known address, “service is complete upon mailing.” FED. R. CIV. P. 5(b)(2)(C). If service is by electronic means, “service is

reasoning to be neither clearly erroneous nor contrary to law. United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219,
1221 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 492 U.S. 918 (1989).
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of United States
Magistrate Judge (ECF No. 84) is ACCEPTED pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) such that the
Hospital’s Rule 12(b)(6) Motion to Dismiss Seventh Amended Complaint or in the Alternative 12(c)
Motion for Judgement on the Pleadings (ECF No. 66) is GRANTED, the Officer Defendants’ Motion
to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Seventh Amended Complaint (ECF No. 72) is GRANTED, and the County’s
Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Seventh Amended Complaint (ECF No. 71) is GRANTED IN PART and
DENIED IN PART. The claims against the Hospital, Sheriff Salazar, the Officer Defendants, and the
Doe Defendants are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. The claims against the County are DISMISSED
WITH PREJUDICE, with the exception of Plaintiff’s ADA and Rehabilitation Act discrimination
claims based on the County’s alleged failure to provide Mr. Ellison with antipsychotic medications and
therapy sessions.
It is so ORDERED.
SIGNED this 9th day of June, 2026.
