ORDER


On September 16, 2009, Magistrate Judge Robert M. Levy issued a Report and Recommendation in the above-captioned matter. On September 24, 2009, a copy of the Report and Recommendation was mailed to pro se defendant. No objections were filed and as such, the Court adopted the Report and Recommendation on October 21, 2009.

However, on October 30, 2009, the mailed copy of the Report and Recommendation was returned as undeliverable because of an incorrect address. The Court then re-sent the Report and Recommendation to defendant and granted her 20 additional days to object to it. On November 16, 2009, the second mailed copy of the Report and Recommendation was returned as undeliverable because defendant refused delivery. On November 23, 2009, the Court attempted to contact defendant via telephone using a phone number provided by defendant, but was unable to do so because the number was no longer in service.

As such, the Court now adopts in full the recommendation contained in the Report and Recommendation. The Clerk of the Court is directed to enter judgment accordingly and to close the case.
