ORDER ADOPTING THE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED
STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE AND DISMISSING THE PRO SE COMPLAINT
______________________________________________________________________________
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 20) of United States
Magistrate Judge Edward G. Bryant (the “Magistrate Judge”) as to the pro se Complaint (ECF
No. 1) of Plaintiff Kimberly Michelle Ware (“Plaintiff”). The Magistrate Judge filed his Report
and Recommendation on November 17, 2017. When a magistrate judge “submit[s] to a judge of
the [district] court proposed findings of fact and recommendations,” “any party may serve and
file written objections to such proposed findings and recommendations as provided by rules of
court.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B)–(C). Any such objection must be made within fourteen days.
Id. § 636(b)(1). Then 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.” Id.
(italics added). But the Court need not review any portion of the recommendation to which
Plaintiff did not specifically object, and may adopt the findings and rulings of the Chief
Magistrate Judge to which no specific objection is filed. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149–52
(1985).
Here, Plaintiff has not filed an objection any part of the Magistrate Judge’s Report and
Recommendation. And the time for Plaintiff to do so has passed. Therefore, the Court hereby
ADOPTS the Recommendation and Report of the Magistrate Judge in full.
Accordingly,
Plaintiff’s pro se Complaint is DISMISSED. All pending motions are DENIED as moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
