ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
ALAN D ALBRIGHT UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Susan Hightower. ECF No. 41. The report recommends that this Court grant in part and deny in part Defendant United Healthcare Insurance Company's Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 27). The report and recommendation was filed on October 12, 2023.
A party may file specific, written objections to the proposed findings and recommendations of the magistrate judge within fourteen days after being served with a copy of the report and recommendation, thereby securing de novo review by the district court. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b). As of today, neither party has filed objections.
When no objections are timely filed, a district court reviews the magistrate judge's report and recommendation for clear error. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 72 advisory committee's note (“When no timely objection is filed, the [district] court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation.”). The Court has reviewed the report and recommendation and finds no clear error.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Hightower (ECF No. 41) is ADOPTED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED consistent with Magistrate Judge Hightower's recommendations that:
• Defendant's Rule 12(b)(2) Motion to Dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction is DENIED without prejudice;
• Defendant's Rule 12(b)(6) Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Misrepresentation claims under the TIC is GRANTED;
• and Defendant's Rule 12(b)(6) Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's unfair settlement practices claims under the TIC are DENIED.
