ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
AND DISMISSING COMPLAINT WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Presently before the Court is the report issued on December 1, 2016 by Magistrate Judge
Stephanie Dawkins Davis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), recommending that the Court dismiss the
plaintiff’s complaint without prejudice. Although the report stated that the parties to this action
could object to and seek review of the recommendation within fourteen days of service of the report,
no objections have been filed thus far. The parties’ failure to file objections to the report and
recommendation waives any further right to appeal. Smith v. Detroit Fed’n of Teachers Local 231,
829 F.2d 1370, 1373 (6th Cir. 1987). Likewise, the failure to object to the magistrate judge’s report
releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140,
149 (1985). However, the Court agrees with the findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation [dkt.
#8] is ADOPTED.
It is further ORDERED that the complaint is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
