Judge Sharp/Brown

ORDER
The Magistrate Judge has entered a Report and Recommendation (“R & R”) (Docket No. 53),
recommending that Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 35) and Motion for Consolidation
(Docket No. 48) be denied. Even though Defendants were specifically informed in the R & R that
any objections were to be filed within fourteen days of receipt, no objections have been filed. Having
considered the matters presented by the motions and the arguments raised by Defendants, the Court
agrees with the Magistrate Judge’s conclusion that neither dismissal, nor consolidation is appropriate
on this record.
Accordingly, the Court rules as follows:
(1) The R & R (Docket No. 53) is hereby ACCEPTED and APPROVED;
(2) Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (Docket No. 35) is hereby DENIED; and
(3) Defendants’ Motion for Consolidation (Docket No. 48) is hereby DENIED.
This case is hereby returned to Magistrate Judge Brown for further pretrial case management.
It is SO ORDERED.
