Opinion
Case No. 12-13761
11-13-2013
Richard V. Davis, II, Plaintiff, v. William Malatinsky, Defendant.
Honorable Nancy G. Edmunds
ORDER AND OPINION ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S
OCTOBER 10, 2013 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [17]
Before the Court is the magistrate judge's October 10, 2013 report and recommendation. (Dkt. 17.) The magistrate judge recommended dismissing Plaintiff's complaint with prejudice because the applicable statute of limitations bars Plaintiff's claim. (Id.)
The Court is fully advised in the premises and has reviewed the record and the pleadings. Neither party has filed objections. "[T]he failure to object to the magistrate judge's report[] releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter." Hall v. Rawal, 09-10933, 2012 WL 3639070, at *1 (E.D.Mich. Aug. 24, 2012) (citation omitted). The Court nevertheless agrees with the magistrate judge's recommendation. The Court therefore ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the magistrate judge's report and recommendation.
The Court therefore GRANTS Defendant's motion to dismiss. (Dkt. 13.)
So ordered.
