RICHARD J. LYNCH, Plaintiff, v. DEPUTY WARDEN REWERTS, Defendant.
ORDER ACCEPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S APRIL 29 , 2019 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [20]
Pending before the Court is the magistrate judge's April 29, 2019 report and recommendation. (ECF No. 20.) The magistrate judge recommends that the Court grant Defendant's motion to dismiss (ECF No. 12). (See id.) The Court is fully advised in the premises and has reviewed the record and the pleadings in this matter. Neither party filed objections to the magistrate judge's report and recommendation. "[T]he failure to object to the magistrate judge's report[] releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter." Hall v. Rawal, 09-10933, 2012 WL 3639070, at *1 (E.D.Mich. Aug. 24, 2012) (citation omitted). The Court nevertheless agrees with the magistrate judge's recommendation. The Court therefore ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the magistrate judge's report and recommendation and GRANTS Defendant's motion to dismiss. It is further ordered that Plaintiff's complaint is hereby DISMISSED in its entirety with prejudice.
SO ORDERED.
