HON. MARK A. GOLDSMITH
ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT
AND RECOMMENDATION AND GRANTING THE GOVERNMENT'S MOTION
FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
This matter is presently before the Court on the Report and Recommendation ("R&R") of Magistrate Judge Mona K. Majzoub, issued on June 7, 2012. The Magistrate Judge recommends that the Government's motion for summary judgment be granted and that judgment be entered in favor of the Government in the amount of $51,288.40, plus interest, costs, and fees, as provided by law. Defendant has not filed objections to the R&R, and the time to do so has expired. Therefore, any further right to challenge the recommendations reached by the Magistrate Judge is waived. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 155 (1985). In any event, the Court has reviewed the R&R and finds that the Magistrate Judge has reached the correct result for the correct reasons.
Accordingly, the Magistrate Judge's R&R of June 7, 2012 (Dkt. 14) is accepted and adopted as the findings and conclusions of the Court, and the Government's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 9) is granted. Judgment will be entered accordingly.
