TRACY YOUNGBLOOD-MCDANIEL and ENDPOINT CAPITAL, LLC, Plaintiffs, v. DIAGNOSTIC BIOSCIENCE LABORATORIES, LLC, Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
TOM BARBER. UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This matter is before the Court on consideration of the report and recommendation of Anthony E. Porcelli, United States Magistrate Judge, entered on July 11, 2024. (Doc. 14). Judge Porcelli recommends that Plaintiffs' “Motion for Default Judgment” (Doc. 13) be granted. No party has objected, and the time to object has expired.
After conducting a careful and complete review of the findings and recommendations, a district judge may accept, reject, or modify the magistrate judge's report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Camby v. Davis, 718 F.2d 198, 199 (4th Cir. 1983); Williams v. Wainwright, 681 F.2d 732 (11th Cir. 1982). A district court must “make a de novo determination of those portions of the [report and recommendation] to which an objection is made.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). When no objection is filed, a court reviews the report and recommendation for clear error. Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 Fed.Appx. 781, 784 (11th Cir. 2006); Nettles v. Wainwright, 677 F.2d 404, 409 (5th Cir. 1982).
Upon due consideration of the record, including Judge Porcelli's report and recommendation, the Court adopts the report and recommendation. Consequently, Plaintiffs' motion for default judgment is granted.
Accordingly, it is
ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED:
(1) Th1e report and recommendation (Doc. 14) is AFFIRMED and ADOPTED and INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE into this Order for all purposes, including appellate review.
(2) Plaintiffs' “Motion for Default Judgment” (Doc. 13) is hereby GRANTED.
(3) The Clerk is directed to enter default judgment in favor of Plaintiffs and against Defendant, in the amount of $118,938.00 plus $470.00 in costs.
(4) Following the entry of judgment, the Clerk is directed to terminate any pending motions and deadlines, and thereafter close this case.
