ORDER ON RECOMMENDATION OF MAGISTRATE JUDGE

WALKER MILLER, District Judge

This matter is before me on the recommendation of Magistrate Judge Michael E. Hegarty, issued April 7, 2006, that Plaintiff Allen M. Williams's motion for default judgment against Defendant Alpine Banks of Colorado be denied. Williams has not objected to this recommendation and therefore is not entitled to de novo review. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b).

I have reviewed the pertinent portions of the record in this case, including the motion for default judgment, Alpine's response, and the recommendation. I agree with Magistrate Judge Hegarty that default judgment against Alpine is not warranted on the record in this case.

Accordingly, it is ordered:

1. The recommendation of Magistrate Judge Hegarty, issued April 7, 2006, is accepted.

2. Plaintiff's motion for default judgment against Alpine, filed January 24, 2006 (Docket No. 31), is denied.
