DARIUS JAMAL HARDRICK, Plaintiff, v. RAPHAEL RAY WASHINGTON, Defendant.
OPINION AND ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S JULY 22, 2022 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION AND GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO DISMISS
LINDA V. PARKER U.S. DISTRICT JUDGE.
Plaintiff commenced this lawsuit against Defendant on January 28, 2022. The matter has been assigned to Magistrate Judge Jonathan J.C. Grey for all pretrial proceedings, including a hearing and determination of all non-dispositive matters pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(A) and/or a report and recommendation on all dispositive matters pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). (ECF No. 6.) On March 9, Defendant filed a motion to dismiss (ECF No. 4), to which Plaintiff responded (ECF No. 9).
On July 22, Magistrate Judge Grey issued a report and recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that the Court grant Defendant's motion. (ECF No. 11.) At the conclusion of the R&R, Magistrate Judge Grey advises the parties that they may object to and seek review of the R&R within fourteen days of service upon them. (Id. at Pg ID 63.) Magistrate Judge Grey further specifically advises the parties that “[f]ailure to file specific objections constitutes a waiver of any further right to appeal.” (Id.) Neither party filed objections to the R&R.
The Court has carefully reviewed the R&R and concurs with the conclusions reached by Magistrate Judge Grey. The Court therefore adopts the R&R.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Defendant's motion to dismiss (ECF No. 4) is GRANTED.
