Opinion

CIVIL ACTION NO. 2:13-CV-00198

2013-10-15

TAREYTON LEE, Petitioner, v. WILLIAM STEPHENS, Respondent.


ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM

AND RECOMMENDATION TO DISMISS

On September 9, 2013, United States Magistrate Judge B. Janice Ellington issued her "Memorandum and Recommendation to Dismiss" (D.E. 15). The parties were provided proper notice of, and opportunity to object to, the Magistrate Judge's Memorandum and Recommendation. FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b); 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); General Order No. 2002-13. No objections have been filed.

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. Guillory v. PPG Industries, Inc., 434 F.3d 303, 308 (5th Cir. 2005) (citing Douglass v. United Services Auto Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1420 (5th Cir. 1996)).

Having reviewed the findings of fact and conclusions of law set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Memorandum and Recommendation (D.E. 15), 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 Petition (D.E. 1) is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for want of prosecution.
