ORDER


On June 27, 2011, the Honorable James L. Cott, United States Magistrate Judge, issued a Report and Recommendation in the above-captioned matter recommending that the Court grant defendants' motion to dismiss the action in its entirety.

Plaintiff has failed to file any objection to the Report and Recommendation, and, for that reason alone, has waived any right to review by this Court. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 147-48 (1985); Mario v. P C Food Markets, Inc., 313 F.3d 758, 766 (2d Cir. 2002); Spence v. Superintendent, Great Meadow Corr. Facility, 219 F.3d 162, 174 (2d Cir. 2000). Accordingly, the Court hereby adopts the Report and Recommendation, and, for the reasons therein, dismisses the action with prejudice. In addition, because plaintiff has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right, a certificate of appealability will not issue. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253. Moreover, the Court certifies that any appeal from this Order would not be taken in good faith, as plaintiff's claims lack any arguable basis in law or fact, and therefore permission to proceed in forma pauperis is also denied. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3); see also Seimon v. Emigrant Savs. Bank (In re Seimon), 421 F.3d 167, 169 (2d Cir. 2005). Clerk to enter judgment.

SO ORDERED.
