JUDGE SARA LIOI
MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before the Court is the report and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge in the
above-entitled action. Under the relevant statute:
[. . .] Within fourteen days after being served with a copy, any party
may serve and file written objections to such proposed findings and
recommendations as provided by rules of court. A judge of the court
shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or
specified proposed findings or recommendations to which objection
is made.
28 U.S.C. ' 636(b)(1)(C). In this case, the fourteen-day period has elapsed and no objections have
been filed. The failure to file written objections to a Magistrate Judge=s report and recommendation
constitutes a waiver of a de novo determination by the district court of an issue covered in the
report. Thomas v. Arn, 728 F.2d 813 (6th Cir. 1984), aff=d, 474 U.S. 140 (1985); see United States
v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947 (6th Cir. 1981).

adopts the same. Specifically, the Court adopts the DOJ’s proposal, which contemplates the
assignment of a total of 12 female deputies—6 female deputies for each of the two female-only

facility falls within the definition of “Summit County Jail” in the Consent Decree. The parties are

instructed to engage in discussions regarding the County’s proposed staffing plan with respect to
Glenwood in accordance with the terms of the Consent Decree.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
