TIMOTHY BOULDING, Plaintiff, v. BHAMUNI SUDHIR, ET AL., Defendants.
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
This matter was referred to United States Magistrate R. Steven Whalen pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 72.1. In his report filed on October 8, 2016, the magistrate judge recommended that this court grant Defendant Alfred Jones' Motion to Dismiss and dismiss Defendant Jones with prejudice. No objections have been filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C.§ 636(b)(1)(C), thus further appeal rights are waived.
The failure to object to the magistrate judge's report releases the court from its duty to independently review the motion. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). --------
Having reviewed the file and the report, the court concludes that the findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge are correct and ADOPTS the same for purposes of this Order.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, for the reasons set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, Defendant Alfred Jones' Motion to Dismiss {Dkt # 38} is GRANTED and the Jones is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
