Sanders issued a Report and Recommendation recommending that Donnie Lard’s complaint be dismissed with prejudice as frivolous. Doc. #12. The Report and Recommendation warned: Objections must be in writing and must be filed within fourteen (14) days of this date, and “a party’s failure to file written objections to the findings, conclusions, and recommendation in a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation within [14] days after being served with a copy shall bar that party, except on grounds of plain error, from attacking on appeal the unobjected-to proposed factual findings and legal conclusions accepted by the district court ....” Douglass v. United Services Automobile Ass’n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1428-29 (5th Cir. 1996) (en banc)(citations omitted); see also United States v.
