In United States Currency,

ORDER

On October 5,2015, Magistrate Judge King issued a report and
recommendation ("R&R") recommending that claimant Ronnie R. Smith Jr.'s

claim to the currency at issue in this case be dismissed for failure to prosecute
and that judgment be entered in favor of the Government. R&R 2, ECF No 19.
Magistrate Judge King notified the parties of their right to file objections to

the R&R pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Id. at 2. She also specifically
advised the parties that the failure to object to the R&R within fourteen days
would result in a waiver of both the right to de novo review by the District Judge

and the right to appeal the decision of the District Court adopting the R&R. Id.
The deadline for filing such objections has passed, and no objections were

filed. Having received no objections, the R&R is ADOPTED. Ronnie R. Smith

Jr.'s claim is dismissed, and the Clerk shall enter judgment in favor of the
Government.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
