Anthony Hannon, Plaintiff, v. M. Tuzas, Defendant.
Patricia T. Morris, Mag. Judge
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF NO. 20) AND DENYING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (ECF NO. 16)
Hon. Jonathan J.C. Grey, United States District Judge
On September 1, 2023, Plaintiff Anthony Hannon commenced this lawsuit against Defendant M. Tuzas. (ECF No. 1.) On May 3, 2024, Tuzas filed a motion for summary judgment on the basis of exhaustion. (ECF No. 16.) The matter has been assigned to Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris for all pretrial proceedings, including a report and recommendation on all dispositive matters pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). (ECF No. 13.)
On October 1, 2024, Judge Morris issued a report and recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that the Court deny Tuzas' motion for summary judgment. (ECF Nos. 16, 20.) At the conclusion of her R&R, Judge Morris advised the parties that they may object to and seek review of the R&R within fourteen days of service upon them. She further advised the parties that “[f]ailure to file specific objections constitutes a waiver of any further right to appeal.” (ECF No. 20.) Neither party filed objections to the R&R.
The Court has carefully reviewed the R&R and concurs with the conclusions reached by Judge Morris. The Court, therefore, adopts the R&R.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Tuzas' motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 16) is DENIED.
SO ORDERED.
