RANDY FLOYD, Plaintiff, v. TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE, Defendant.


ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

Plaintiff Randy Floyd initiated this civil action on January 22, 2018. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love, who issued a Report and Recommendation recommending that the case be dismissed without prejudice for failure to obey a court order and failure to prosecute. (Docket No. 14.) On September 26, 2018 Plaintiff received a copy of the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation. Docket No. 15. The Report and Recommendation informed Plaintiff of his rights to object to the Report and Recommendation within 14 days, and further informed him that a failure to timely object shall bar "that party from de novo review by the district judge of those findings, conclusions and recommendations and, except on grounds of plain error, from appellate review of unobjected-to factual findings and legal conclusions accepted and adopted by the district court." Docket No. 14 at 2-3 (citing Douglass v. United States Auto. Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1430 (5th Cir. 1996)). Since the service of the Report and Recommendation on September 26, 2018, Plaintiff has not filed objections and the prescribed time period for doing so has passed.

Having reviewed the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge, the Court agrees with the Magistrate Judge. Therefore, the Court hereby adopts the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge as the findings and conclusions of the Court. It is accordingly ORDERED that the complaint is hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

SIGNED this the 5th day of February, 2019.
