KUMANI KALEE REGAINS, Plaintiff, v. MARY KALAT, Defendant.
Curtis Ivy United States Magistrate Judge.
OPINION AND ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S APRIL 30, 2024 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF NO. 25)
F. Kay Behm United States District Judge.
Magistrate Judge Curtis Ivy issued a Report and Recommendation on Defendants' motion to dismiss and for partial summary judgment on April 30, 2024. (ECF No. 25). Judge Ivy recommends granting Defendant's motion to dismiss and for partial summary judgment and dismissing the case. Id. Plaintiff moved to extend the time to file objections. (ECF No. 26). The court extended the time to file objections until June 28, 2024. (ECF No. 27). Nearly two weeks have elapsed since the June 28, 2024 deadline and no objections have been filed. “[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, 2012 WL 3639070 (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 recommended disposition.
Therefore, the court ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 25), GRANTS Defendant's motion to dismiss and for partial summary judgment, and DISMISSES the complaint with prejudice.
SO ORDERED.
