MEMORANDUM & ORDER
ERIC KOMITEE, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
The Court has received Magistrate Judge Kuo's Report and Recommendation (R&R) dated February 7, 2022. ECF No. 62. Judge Kuo recommends that the Court grant Plaintiff's motion for settlement approval under Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, Inc., 796 F.3d 199 (2d Cir. 2015). Neither party has filed objections and the time to do so has expired. Accordingly, the Court reviews Judge Kuo's recommendation for clear error on the face of the record. See Advisory Comm. Notes to Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b); accord State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co. v. Grafman, 968 F.Supp.2d 480, 481 (E.D.N.Y. 2013). Having reviewed the record, I find no error and therefore adopt the R&R in its entirety. Plaintiff's motion for settlement approval is granted, and I approve both the proposed settlement agreement and the attached release as to wage and hour claims. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to close the case.
SO ORDERED.
