What persuades

In Glenn v. Commissioner of Social Security, Randon recommended granting the claimant's summary-judgment motion and remanding for further proceedings. The district judge adopted the recommendation.

“United States Magistrate Judge Mark A. Randon issued a report recommending Glenn's motion be granted and the Commissioner's motion be denied. He also recommended that the case be remanded ... Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, ECF No. 14, is GRANTED ... the case is REMANDED to the Commissioner for further proceedings.”

Procedural preferences

In Dye’s prisoner civil rights case, Randon recommended granting the defendants’ second summary judgment motion; the district judge adopted that recommendation and dismissed the complaint.

“Magistrate Judge Mark A. Randon's Report and Recommendation dated November 4, 2010, is hereby accepted and adopted. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED Defendants' Second Motion for Summary Judgment be GRANTED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's Complaint is DISMISSED in its entirety.”
