F. KAY BEHM UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Currently before the court is Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti's January 10, 2024 Report and Recommendation. (ECF No. 56). Magistrate Judge Patti recommends dismissal of Plaintiff's complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) and the denial of Defendants' motions to dismiss or for summary judgment as moot (ECF Nos. 51, 53). 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.
