OPINION AND ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S OCTOBER 28, 2019 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [28]
Currently before the Court is the magistrate judge's October 28, 2019 report and recommendation. (Dkt. 28.) The magistrate judge recommends dismissing the remaining defendants in this case, Defendants Michael Henderson, Husain, and Farris, due to Plaintiff's failure to effectuate timely service and his failure to provide the Court with valid addresses for these defendants. The Court is fully advised in the premises and has reviewed the record and the pleadings. No party has filed objections. "[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, No. 09-10933, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 120541, at *2 (E.D. Mich. Aug. 24, 2012) (citing Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985)). The Court nevertheless agrees with the magistrate judge's recommendation. The Court therefore ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the magistrate judge's report and recommendation.
Accordingly, it is ordered that the remaining claims against Defendants Henderson, Husain, and Farris are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE, and Henderson, Husain, and Farris are DISMISSED from this action. This order closes this case in its entirety.
SO ORDERED.
