CIVIL ACTION NO. 2:16-CV-482
12-12-2017
EPHRAIN RELIFORD, Plaintiff, v. DEAN J. CRAIG, et. al., Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM AND RECOMMENDATION
On November 22, 2017, United States Magistrate Judge B. Janice Ellington issued her "Memorandum and Recommendation" on Defendants' motion for summary judgment. D.E. 27. The parties were provided proper notice and an opportunity to object to the Magistrate Judge's Memorandum and Recommendation. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
When no timely objection to a magistrate judge's memorandum and recommendation is filed, the district court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record and accept the magistrate judge's memorandum and recommendation. Guillory v. PPG Industries, Inc., 434 F.3d 303, 308 (5th Cir. 2005) (citing Douglass v. United Services Auto Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1420 (5th Cir. 1996)).
Plaintiff did not file timely objections. The Court has reviewed the findings of fact and conclusions of law set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Memorandum and Recommendation (D.E. 27), and all other relevant documents in the record, and finding no clear error, the Court ADOPTS as its own the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Defendants' motion for summary judgment and ORDERS that this action be DISMISSED with prejudice. The Clerk shall enter this order and provide a copy to all parties.
It is so ORDERED this 12 day of December, 2017.
