TYJUAN GRAY, Plaintiff, v. RYAN SMITH, JOSHUA QUALLS, and MATTHEW WILKINSON, Defendants.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF NO. 49)
JONATHAN J.C. GREY UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Pro se plaintiff Tyjuan Gray filed this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 lawsuit against defendants Ryan Smith, Joshua Qualls, and Matthew Wilkinson, alleging that they used excessive force when placing him in a restraint chair. This matter comes before the Court on Magistrate Judge Curtis Ivy, Jr.'s Report and Recommendation dated December 15, 2023. (ECF No. 49.) In the Report and Recommendation, the Magistrate Judge recommends that the Court grant defendants' motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 38) and dismiss Gray's cause of action with prejudice. (Id.) No party has filed an objection to the Report and Recommendation.
The Court has had an opportunity to review this matter and finds that the Magistrate Judge reached the correct conclusions for the proper reasons. Finding no error in the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation in its entirety. Furthermore, as neither party has raised an objection to the Report and Recommendation, the Court finds that the parties have waived any further objections to the Report and Recommendation. Smith v. Detroit Fed'n of Teachers Local 231, 829 F.2d 1370, 1373 (6th Cir. 1987) (a party's failure to file any objections waives his or her right to further appeal); Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985).
For the reasons stated above, IT IS ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation dated December 15, 2023 (ECF No. 49) is ADOPTED as this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendants' motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 38) is GRANTED and this cause of action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
SO ORDERED.
