Case No. 6:20-cv-01064-DCC

Yosif Muhammed Enibtawi, Plaintiff, v. State Carolina Law Enforcement Division and Attorney General's Office, Defendants.
ORDER
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff's Complaint and Amended Complaint alleging violations of his civil rights pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. ECF Nos. 1, 12. In accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Local Civil Rule 73.02(B)(2), (D.S.C.), this matter was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Kevin F. McDonald for pre-trial proceedings and a Report and Recommendation ("Report"). On May 15, 2020, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report recommending that the Complaint be summarily dismissed. ECF No. 16. Plaintiff was advised of his right to file objections. Plaintiff failed to file objections to the Report, and the time to do so has lapsed.
The Magistrate Judge makes only a recommendation to this Court. The recommendation has no presumptive weight, and the responsibility to make a final determination remains with the Court. See Mathews v. Weber, 423 U.S. 261 (1976). The Court is charged with making a de novo determination of any portion of the Report of the Magistrate Judge to which a specific objection is made. The Court may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendation made by the Magistrate Judge or recommit the matter to the Magistrate Judge with instructions. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). The Court will review the Report only for clear error in the absence of an objection. See Diamond v. Colonial Life & Accident Ins. Co., 416 F.3d 310, 315 (4th Cir. 2005) (stating that "in the absence of timely filed objection, a district court need not conduct a de novo review, but instead must only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation." (citation omitted)).
After considering the record in this case, the applicable law, and the Report of the Magistrate Judge, the Court finds no clear error and agrees with the recommendation of the Magistrate Judge. This action is DISMISSED with prejudice and without issuance of service of process. Plaintiff has been previously notified of his deficiencies, has been given an opportunity to amend his complaint, and has availed himself of that opportunity. See Goode v. Cent. Va. Legal Aid Soc'y, Inc., 807 F.3d 619 (4th Cir. 2015); Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064 (4th Cir. 1993); see also Grady v. White, No. 16-7722, 2017 WL 1437235 (4th Cir. April 24, 2017) (dismissing without remand because district court previously afforded Plaintiff the chance to amend his complaint).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
