ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES
MAGISTRATE JUDGE
This case was referred to the Honorable Zack Hawthorn, United States Magistrate Judge,
for pretrial management pursuant to General Order 72-1. Pending before the court is a “Motion
for Default Judgment” by the Plaintiff, Texas Guaranteed Student Loan Corporation (“TGSLC”).
(Doc. No. 13.) On February 22, 2016, the magistrate judge filed a report recommending that the
court grant TGSLC’s motion. (Doc. No. 14.) No objections to the report have been filed, and
the time for doing so has passed. Furthermore, the court’s independent review confirms that the
magistrate judge’s analysis is correct.
Additionally, the magistrate judge’s report ordered that TGSLC provide documentation
to support the following two categories of damages: (1) costs of court, and (2) pre-judgment
interest. (Doc. No. 14, at 9–10.) TGSLC has provided documentation to support its costs of
court. (Doc. No. 15.) However, TGSLC has only provided documentation in support of its
request for pre-judgment interest starting on September 30, 2015. (Doc. No. 13, App’x at 1.)
Therefore, in accordance with the magistrate judge’s report, pre-judgment interest of 5% per
annum will be applied to $4,916.53 only from September 30, 2015 until the date of final
judgment, for a total of $117.86.
It is ORDERED that the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation (Doc. No. 14) is
ADOPTED; and TGSLC’s “Motion for Default Judgment” (Doc. No. 13) is GRANTED. A
final judgment will be entered separately.
So ORDERED and SIGNED this 23 day of March, 2016.
