ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Tu M. Pham’s Report and Recommendation
(“Report”), filed November 3, 2017, recommending denial of Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss for
insufficient service of process. (ECF No. 13.)1
A magistrate judge may submit to a judge of the court proposed findings of fact and
recommendations regarding the involuntary dismissal of an action for insufficient service of
process. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). “Within 14 days after being served with a copy of the
recommended disposition, a party may serve and file specific written objections to the proposed
findings and recommendations.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2); see also 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). A
district court reviews de novo only those proposed findings of fact or conclusions of law to
which a party specifically objects. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3); see also 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
The deadline to object to the Report has passed, and Defendant has filed no objections.
The Court has reviewed the Report for clear error and finds none. Therefore, the Court

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 28th day of November, 2017.
