ORDER
Before the Court is the report and recommendation from United States Magistrate Judge
Susan Hightower concerning Plaintiff James Green’s (“Plaintiff”) Complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
1915(e), (Dkt. 1). (R. & R., Dkt. 6). Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Rule 1(d) of Appendix C of
the Local Rules of the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, Judge
Hightower issued her report and recommendation on October 10, 2023. (Id.). As of the date of this
order, Plaintiff has not filed objections to the report and recommendation.
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), a party may serve and file specific, written objections to a
magistrate judge’s proposed findings and recommendations within fourteen days after being served
with a copy of the report and recommendation and, in doing so, secure de novo review by the
district court. When no objections are timely filed, a district court can review the magistrate’s report
and recommendation for clear error. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72 advisory committee’s note (“When no
timely objection is filed, the [district] court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the
face of the record in order to accept the recommendation.”).
Because Plaintiff has not filed timely objections, the Court reviews the report and
recommendation for clear error. Having done so and finding no clear error, the Court accepts and
adopts the report and recommendation as its own order.
1

Accordingly, the Court ORDERS that the Report and Recommendation of the United
States Magistrate Judge, (Dkt. 6), is ADOPTED. Plaintiff’s claims against Defendant Tracy Young
and Julie Torkelson are DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
IT IS FINALLY ORDERED that the Clerk’s Office mail a copy of this Order to Plaintiff
via certified mail.
SIGNED on November 13, 2023.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
