ANDREW G. DUGGINS,

Civil Action No. 1:21-CV-34
Judge Bailey

DIRECTOR MICHAEL CARVAJAL,

Defendants.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
The above referenced case is before this Court upon the magistrate judge’s
recommendation that plaintiff’s Application to Proceed without Prepayment of Fees [Doc. 2]
be denied.
This Court is charged with conducting a de novo review of any portion of the
magistrate judge’s reportto which a specific objection is registered, and may accept, reject,
or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendations contained in that report. 28

u.s.c.

§ 636(b)(1). However, absent prompt objection by a dissatisfied party, it appears that
congress did not intend for the district court to review the factual and legal conclusions of
the magistrate judge. Thomas v. Am, 474 U.S. 140 (1985). Additionally, any party who
fails to file timely, written objections to the magistrate judge’s report pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§ 636(b)(1) waives the right to raise those objections at the appellate court level. United
I

States v. Schronce, 727 F.2d 91(4th Cir. 1984), cert. denied, 467 U.S. 1208(1984). No
objections have been filed to the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation.
A de novo review of the record indicates that the magistrate judge’s report
accurately summarizes this case and the applicable law. Accordingly, the magistrate
judge’s report and recommendation [Doc. 9] is AFFIRMED, and plaintiff’s Application to
Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees [Doc. 2] is DENIED.
It is so ORDERED.
The Clerk is directed to transmit copies of this Order to any counsel of record and
to mail a copy to the prose plaintiff.
DATED: October~, 2021.
