BLOCK, Senior District Judge:
On October 14, 2016, Magistrate Judge Lois Bloom issued a Report and
Recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that plaintiff’s Motion for Default Judgment
be granted and plaintiff be awarded $12,034.50 in damages, fees, and costs.

No

objections have been filed to date, and defendants’ opportunity to object has passed.
Where there are no objections, the Court may adopt the R&R without de novo
review. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149–50 (1985); Mario v. P & C Food Mkts.,
Inc., 313 F.3d 758, 766 (2d Cir. 2002) (“Where parties receive clear notice of the
consequences, failure timely to object to a magistrate’s report and recommendation
operates as a waiver of further judicial review of the magistrate’s decision.”). The Court

must conduct de novo review if it appears that the magistrate judge may have committed
plain error. See Spence v. Superintendent, Great Meadow Corr. Facility, 219 F.3d 162,
174 (2d Cir. 2000). No such error appears here. Accordingly, the Court adopts the
R&R without de novo review and grants plaintiff’s Motion for Default Judgment.
SO ORDERED.
