Opinion
No. 10 Civ. 5160 (LTS)(FM)
06-12-2012
ORDER
The Court has reviewed Magistrate Judge Maas' March 27, 2012, Report and Recommendation (the "Report"), which recommends that Defendant's motion for judgment on the pleadings should be granted and that Plaintiffs cross-motion for judgment on the pleadings should be denied. Neither party filed objections to the Report.
In reviewing a report and recommendation, a district court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(b)(1)(C) (West 2006). In a case such as this one, where neither party files timely objections to the magistrate judge's report and recommendation, a district court need only determine that the recommendation is not clearly erroneous or contrary to the law. Arista Records LLC v. Doe, 604 F.3d 110, 117 (2d Cir. 2010); see Fed. R. Civ. P. 72.
The Court has carefully reviewed Magistrate Judge Maas' thorough Report and finds no clear error. The Court therefore adopts the Report in its entirety for the reasons stated therein. Defendant's motion for judgment on the pleadings is granted and Plaintiffs cross-motion is denied.
The Clerk of the Court is respectfully requested to enter judgment accordingly and close this case.
