DARRIN P. GAYLES UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE
THIS MATTER is before the Court on U.S. Magistrate Judge Jonathan Goodman's Report and Recommendation (the “Report”) (ECF No. 95) regarding Defendants Daniela Fontecilla and Law Offices of Daniela Fontecilla, P.A.'s Motion to Tax Costs (ECF No. 91). The Court referred to Judge Goodman all non-dispositive pretrial matters, as well as motions for attorney's fees and costs and motions for sanctions, in accordance with 28 USC § 636(b). ECF No. 5.

The parties have not filed objections to Judge Goodman's Report, and the time to do so has passed.
The Court has reviewed the Report and the relevant record and agrees with the reasoning and recommendations set forth therein. Finding no clear error, the Court AFFIRMS and ADOPTS Judge Goodman's Report (ECF No. 95). It is hereby ORDERED and ADJUDGED that Defendants Daniela Fontecilla and Law Offices of Daniela Fontecilla, P.A.'s Motion to Tax Costs (ECF No. 91) is GRANTED.
