CURTIS ANTHONY JONES, Plaintiff, v. NUECES COUNTY, et al., Defendants.


ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM & RECOMMENDATION

DAVID S. MORALES, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Jason Libby's Memorandum and Recommendation (“M&R”). (D.E. 36). The M&R recommends that Plaintiffs case be dismissed pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). (D.E. 1).

The parties were provided proper notice of, and the opportunity to object to, the Magistrate Judge's M&R. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b); General Order No. 2002-13. No objection has been filed. When no timely objection has been filed, the district court need only determine whether the Magistrate Judge's M&R is clearly erroneous or contrary to law. United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219, 1221 (5th Cir. 1989) (per curiam); Badaiki v. Schlumberger Holdings Corp., 512 F.Supp.3d 741, 743-44 (S.D. Tex. 2021) (Eskridge, J.).

Having reviewed the proposed findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge, the filings of the parties, the record, and the applicable law, and finding that the M&R is not clearly erroneous or contrary to law, the Court ADOPTS the M&R in its entirety. (D.E. 36). Accordingly, the Court DISMISSES Plaintiffs case pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). See Martinez v. Johnson, 104 F.3d 769, 772 (5th Cir. 1997) (stating district courts may dismiss actions sua sponte without motion by a defendant). All claims in this action are DISMISSED with prejudice. A final judgment will be entered separately.

SO ORDERED.
