Opinion

C.A. No. 4:06-899-TLW-TER.

February 21, 2008


ORDER


The Plaintiff brought this pro se action against the Defendants, alleging employment discrimination, wrongful termination, and retaliation. On June 15, 2007, the Defendants moved for summary judgment on the Plaintiff's claims. The Plaintiff filed a response on July 23, 2007, and the Defendants replied on August 2, 2007. On January 29, 2008, United States Magistrate Judge Thomas Rogers, to whom this case had previously been assigned pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Local Rule 73.02(B)(2) (D.S.C.), filed a Report and Recommendation ("the Report"). In his Report, Magistrate Judge Rogers recommends that the Defendants' motion for summary judgment be granted. The Plaintiff did not object to the Magistrate's Report.

This Court is charged with conducting a de novo review of any portion of the Magistrate Judge's Report to which a specific objection is registered, and may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendations contained in that report. 28 U.S.C. § 636. In the absence of objections to the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, this Court is not required to give any explanation for adopting the recommendation.See Camby v. Davis, 718 F.2d 198, 199 (4th Cir. 1983).

In light of this standard, the Court has carefully reviewed the Magistrate's Report and the record in this case. This Court concludes that the Report accurately summarizes this case and the applicable law and that summary judgment is proper. Therefore, it is hereby ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge's Report is ACCEPTED (Doc. # 45), and that the Defendants' motion for summary judgment is GRANTED (Doc. # 31).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
