GODSON ERUCHALU, Plaintiff, v. U.S. BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION; U.S. BANK HOME MORTGAGE; et. al., Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT & RECOMMENDATION OF MAGISTRATE JUDGE CAM FERENBACH
Before the Court for consideration is the Report and Recommendation of the Honorable Cam Ferenbach, United States Magistrate Judge, entered April 20, 2016 (ECF No. 296), that recommends denial of Defendant First Option's motion for attorney fees (ECF Nos. 269). The Court adopts Judge Ferenbach's Recommendation in full.
A district court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). A party may file specific written objections to the findings and recommendations of a magistrate judge. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Local Rule IB 3-2(a). When written objections have been filed, the district court is required to "make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which objection is made." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also Local Rule IB 3-2(b). Where a party fails to object, however, a district court is not required to conduct "any review," de novo or otherwise, of the report and recommendations of a magistrate judge. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). / / / / / /
Pursuant to Local Rule IB 3-2(a), objections were due by May 7, 2016. Defendant did not file an objection to the Recommendation. The Court has reviewed the record in this case and concurs with the Judge Ferenbach's recommendation.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 296) is ADOPTED in full.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant's Motion for Attorney Fees (ECF No. 269) is DENIED without prejudice.
DATED: June 28, 2016.
