HERMAN ROBINSON, III, Plaintiff, v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant.
HON. ANTHONY P. PATTI
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF NO. 26)
TERRENCE G. BERG, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This matter is before the Court on Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti's July 26, 2022 Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 26), recommending that Defendant's motion to dismiss or in the alternative for summary judgment (ECF No. 17) be GRANTED, and Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 20) be DENIED.
The Court has reviewed the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation. The law provides that either party may serve and file written objections “[w]ithin fourteen days after being served with a copy” of a report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The district court will make a “de novo determination of those portions of the report . . . to which objection is made.” Id. Where, as here, neither party objects to the report, the district court is not obligated to independently review the record. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-52 (1985). The Court will therefore accept the Magistrate's Report and Recommendation of July 26, 2022 as this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law.
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Patti's Report and Recommendation of July 26, 2022 is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED. It is FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant's motion to dismiss or in the alternative for summary judgment is GRANTED. It is FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment is DENIED. Plaintiff's claims are DISMISSED.
SO ORDERED.
