Opinion
CASE NO. 2:09-CV-715-FtM-36DNF.
September 1, 2011
ORDER
THIS CAUSE came on for consideration upon the Report and Recommendation filed by United States Magistrate Judge Douglas Frazier on August 15, 2011 (Dkt. 28), recommending that the Court enter a default against Defendant Larry Hendricks for failing to comply with the orders of the Court. No party has filed an objection, and the time to do so has expired.
After careful consideration of the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, in conjunction with an independent examination of the court file, the Court is of the opinion that the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation should be adopted, confirmed, and approved in all respects. The Magistrate Judge directed Defendant to respond to orders and warned that his failure to comply could result in a default being entered against him (Dkts. 16, 24). Defendant failed to respond. Therefore, an entry of default is appropriate.
Accordingly, it is hereby, ORDERED and ADJUDGED as follows:
1) The Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (Dkt. 28) is ADOPTED, CONFIRMED, and APPROVED in all respects and is made a part of this Order for all purposes, including appellate review.
2) The Clerk is directed to enter a default against Defendant Larry G. Hendricks.DONE AND ORDERED at Ft. Myers, Florida.
