Eddie Burt Wagle, Plaintiff, v. Corizon and Kim Farris, Defendants.
Kimberly G. Altman, Mag. Judge.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [43]
JUDITH E. LEVY, United States District Judge.
Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Kimberly G. Altman's Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 43) recommending that the motion for summary judgment filed by Defendants Corizon and Kim Farris (ECF No. 25) be GRANTED as to Farris and DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE as to Corizon. The parties were required to file specific written objections, if any, within fourteen days of service. Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b)(2); E.D. Mich. LR 72.1(d). No objections were filed. The Court has nevertheless carefully reviewed the Report and Recommendation and concurs in the reasoning and result. Accordingly, The Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 43) is ADOPTED;
Defendants' motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 25) is GRANTED as to Farris; and
Defendants' motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 25) is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE as to Corizon.
By failing to object to the Report and Recommendation, the parties have forfeited any further right of appeal. United States v. Wandahsega, 924 F.3d 868, 878 (6th Cir. 2019); see also Berkshire v. Beauvais, 928 F.3d 520, 530 (6th Cir. 2019).
As stated in the R&R, the case now “proceed[s] only against Corizon and . . . remain[s] stayed until [Corizon's] bankruptcy proceedings are concluded or the stay is otherwise lifted.” (ECF No. 43, PagelD.267-268.)
IT IS SO ORDERED.
