Glorice McPherson v. T-Mobile, et al.

Summary

The United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia adopted a magistrate judge’s Report and Recommendation after conducting a de novo review. The court overruled the plaintiff’s objections and denied her request to amend the complaint because the request was improperly embedded in the objections.

Holdings

1. A request for leave to amend a complaint embedded within an opposition or other filing that does not properly raise the amendment issue is procedurally improper; Plaintiff's embedded request for leave to amend was therefore denied.
2. The court approved, adopted, and made the magistrate judge's Report and Recommendation the Order of the Court after de novo review, finding Plaintiff's objections meritless.

Questions Presented

1. Whether Plaintiff's objections to the magistrate judge's Report and Recommendation had merit.
2. Whether Plaintiff's request for leave to amend her complaint, embedded in her objections to the Report and Recommendation, was properly presented.
