On March 8, 2012, United States Magistrate Judge Brian L. Owsley issued his "Memorandum and Recommendations to Grant Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment" (D.E. 45).

When no timely objection to a magistrate judge's memorandum and recommendation is filed, the district court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record and accept the magistrate judge's memorandum and recommendation.

Having reviewed the findings of fact and conclusions of law set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Memorandum and Recommendation (D.E. 45), and all other relevant documents in the record, and finding no clear error, the Court ADOPTS as its own the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge. Accordingly, the Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment (D.E. 39) is GRANTED and this action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
