ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING REPORT AND
RECOMMENDATION (DKT. 36) AND DENYING DEFENDANT’S
MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (DKT. 27)
This matter is before the Court on Magistrate Judge Mona K. Majzoub’s April 12,
2017 report and recommendation (Dkt. 36), recommending that Plaintiff’s motion for
summary judgment (Dkt. 27) be denied.
The Court has carefully reviewed the Magistrate Judge’s report and
recommendation, and finds it well reasoned and supported by the relevant law.
The law provides that either party may serve and file written objections “[w]ithin
fourteen days after being served with a copy” of the report and recommendations.
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). If a party files written objections, the district court will make a
“de novo determination of those portions of the report . . . to which objection is made.”
Id. As of this date, no party filed any objections to the report and recommendation,
and the time to do so has now expired, meaning the district court is not obligated to
review the record independently. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-52 (1985).

The Court will therefore accept the Magistrate Judge’s report and recommendation
of April 12, 2017, as this Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law.
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Majzoub’s Report and
Recommendation of April 12, 2017 (Dkt. 36) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED. It is
FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 27) is
DENIED.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: May 10, 2017
