On July 25, 2016, the Court referred the Plaintiff’s motion to United States Magistrate
Judge Gary R. Brown for a recommendation as to whether the default judgment should be
granted and, if so, whether any other relief should be granted.
On March 1, 2017, Judge Brown issued a report (the “R&R”) recommending that the
Plaintiff’s motion for default judgment be granted; that a permanent injunction be issued against
the Defendants; and that the Court endorse the Plaintiff’s proposed order after striking
paragraphs 12 and 13.
The Plaintiff provided proof of service of the R&R on March 3, 2017.
It has been more than fourteen days since the service of the R&R, and the parties have
not filed objections.
As such, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72, this
Court has reviewed the R&R for clear error, and finding none, now concurs in both its reasoning
and its result. See Coburn v. P.N. Fin., No. 13-CV-1006 (ADS) (SIL), 2015 WL 520346, at *1
(E.D.N.Y. Feb. 9, 2015) (reviewing Report and Recommendation without objections for clear
error).
Accordingly, the R&R is adopted in its entirety. The Clerk of the Court is directed to
enter judgment for the Plaintiff in accordance with the R&R, and to close this case.

SO ORDERED.
