VITALIANO, DJ.
Plaintiff Sam Lopez filed this action alleging that defendant operated a place of public
accommodation that was not compliant with the accessibility requirements of the Americans
with Disabilities Act ("ADA"), 42 U.S.C. § 12181 et seq. After plaintiff failed to comply with
several court orders and was repeatedly warned that his noncompliance could result in the
dismissal of this action, Magistrate Judge Cheryl L. Pollak issued a report and recommendation,
dated April 13, 2016 (the "R&R"), recommending that this matter be dismissed for failure to
prosecute. With notice given, no party has filed objections to the R&R, and the time in which to
do so has expired. For the reasons stated below, the R&R is adopted in its entirety.
Legal Standard
In reviewing the report and recommendation of a magistrate judge, a district judge "may
accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the
magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l). A districtjudge is required to "determine de novo any
part of the magistrate judge's disposition that has been properly objected to." Fed. R. Civ. P.
72(b)(3). Where no timely objection has been made, the district court may adopt the report and
recommendation, "provided no clear error is apparent from the face of the record." Dafeng
