MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Paul A. Magnuson United States District Court Judge
This matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of United States Magistrate Judge Douglas L. Micko dated June 12, 2023. (Docket No. 10.) The R&R recommends that Petitioner Pharoah El-Forever Left-I Amen El's Petition for a Writ of Mandamus be dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. Amen El did not file any objections to the R&R and the time to do so has passed. D. Minn. L.R. 72.2(b)(1).
This Court must review de novo any portion of an R&R to which specific objections are made, but in the absence of objections, the Court reviews the R&R only for clear error. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); D. Minn. L.R. 72.2(b); see also Grinder v. Gammon, 73 F.3d 793, 795 (8th Cir. 1996) (noting that district court need only review un-objected-to R&R for clear error). The Court has reviewed the R&R and finds no error, clear or otherwise, in the Magistrate Judge's reasoning.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. The R&R (Docket No. 10) is ADOPTED;
2. The Petition for a Writ of Mandamus (Docket No. 1) is DISMISSED without prejudice for failure to prosecute; and
3. Petitioner's Applications to Proceed in District Court without Prepaying Fees or Costs (Docket Nos. 3, 4) are DENIED as moot.
LET JUDGMENT BE ENTERED ACCORDINGLY.
