ROBERT DAMIAN JOYCE, Plaintiff, v. STATE OF TEXAS, et al., Defendants.
ORDER ACCEPTING FINDINGS , CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
United States Magistrate Judge John R. Parker made Findings, Conclusions, and a Recommendation (FCR) in this case on December 2, 2020. Dkt. No. 19. Judge Parker recommended that the Court deny Robert Damian Joyce's two motions to certify a class action. Dkt. Nos. 5, 16; Id. at 7. No objections to the FCR were filed. The District Court has therefore reviewed the proposed FCR for clear error. Finding none, the Court accepts the FCR of the United States Magistrate Judge. Accordingly, Joyce's motions to certify a class action are denied.
Where no specific objections are filed within the 14-day period, the Court reviews the Magistrate Judge's findings, conclusions, and recommendations only for clear error. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3); see also Wilson v. Smith & Nephew, Inc., No. 3:12-CV-1063-B, 2013 WL 1880770, at *1 (N.D. Tex. May 6, 2013). --------
So ordered on February 2, 2021.
