This matter comes before the Court upon Magistrate Judge

that the Court grant Plaintiff’s unopposed motion to strike
Defendant GMEC, Inc.’s answer to the third amended complaint.
The parties were duly notified that objections to the
Report and Recommendation pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2)

days.

No objections or responses were filed.

The Court has given “reasoned consideration” to the Report

conclusion.
