IRREGULAR IP, LLC, Plaintiff, v. PATAGONIA, INC., Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
ALAN D ALBRIGHT UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Dustin M. Howell. ECF No. 19. The report recommends Defendant's Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 13) be GRANTED. The report and recommendation was filed on December 19, 2023.
A party may file specific, written objections to the proposed findings and recommendations of the magistrate judge within fourteen days after being served with a copy of the report and recommendation, thereby securing de novo review by the district court. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b). A district court need not consider “[f]rivolous, conclusive, or general objections.” Battle v. U.S. Parole Comm'n, 834 F.2d 419, 421 (5th Cir. 1987) (quoting Nettles v. Wainwright, 677 F.2d 404, 410 n.8 (5th Cir. 1982) (en banc), overruled on other grounds by Douglass v. United States Auto. Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415 (5th Cir. 1996)).
Plaintiff filed objections on January 4, 2024. ECF No. 20. The Court has conducted a de novo review of the motion to dismiss, the responses, the report and recommendation, the objection to the report and recommendation, and the applicable laws. After that thorough review, the Court is persuaded that the Magistrate Judge's findings and recommendation should be adopted.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Howell, ECF No. 19, is ADOPTED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's objections are OVERRULED.
IT IS FINALLY ORDERED that Defendant's Motion to Dismiss (ECF No. 13) is GRANTED in accordance with the Report and Recommendation.
