R. Steven Whalen United States Magistrate Judge
OPINION AND ORDER (1) ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF NO. 66); (2) DISMISSING WITH PREJUDICE PLAINTIFF'S CLAIMS AGAINST DEFENDANT A&M TOWING; AND (3) CLOSING THIS CASE
Before the Court is Magistrate Judge R. Steven Whalen's Report and Recommendation recommending that the Court sua sponte dismiss Defendant A&M Towing, the last remaining defendant in this action, for lack of subject matter jurisdiction because the claims are "devoid of merit" and "no longer open to discussion." (ECF No. 66, Report and Recommendation). Plaintiff did not file an objection to the Report and Recommendation.
Having reviewed the Report and Recommendation and there being no timely objections under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and E.D. Mich L.R. 72.1(b), the Court ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 66) and DISMISSES WITH PREJUDICE the claims against Defendant A&M Towing and CLOSES this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
