BEFORE THE COURT is the Report and Recommendation submitted by Magistrate Judge Thomas B. McCoun (Dkt. 13) recommending that Defendant's Motion to Strike and Motion to Dismiss Certain Claims in Plaintiff's Amended Complaint (Dkt. 5) be granted in part and denied in part.

2) Defendant's Motion to Strike and Motion to Dismiss Certain Claims in Plaintiff's Amended Complaint (Dkt. 5) is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part.

In all other respects, the motion is DENIED. DONE AND ORDERED in Tampa, Florida.
