ORDER ADOPTING
RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE (ECF NO. 16)
______________________________________________________________________________
THIS MATTER is before the Court on the Recommendation of United States Magistrate
Judge (“Recommendation”) (ECF No. 16) that this case be administratively closed subject to
reopening for good cause shown. The Recommendation was made in light of Plaintiff’s stated
intention to appeal her Colorado criminal case conviction, where the resolution of that appeal
would impact the claims asserted in the case before this Court. The Magistrate Judge advised the
parties they had fourteen days from the date of his Recommendation, May 8, 2014, to serve and

file specific, written objections. The time permitted for any objections has expired and no
objections to the Recommendation have been filed.
The Court has reviewed the Recommendation and the case file, and concludes the
Magistrate Judge’s analysis was thorough and sound, and that there is no clear error on the face of
the record. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) Advisory Committee’s Notes (“When no timely objection is
filed, the court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order
to accept the recommendation.”); see also Summers v. Utah, 927 F.2d 1165, 1167 (10th Cir. 1991)
(“In the absence of timely objection, the district court may review a magistrate’s report under any
standard it deems appropriate.”). It is therefore ORDERED as follows:
1. That the Magistrate Judge’s Recommendation (ECF No. 16) is ADOPTED in its
entirety as an order of this Court; and
2. That pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 41.2 the Clerk of the Court is directed to
administratively close this action subject to reopening for good cause shown.
DATED this 9th day of June, 2014.
BY THE COURT:
