JOE DICKERSON PLAINTIFF v. BOBBY C. FAIRLEY, ET AL. DEFENDANTS
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
BEFORE THE COURT is the [34] Report and Recommendation entered by United Magistrate Judge Robert P. Myers, on April 8, 2021. Judge Myers recommends that the lawsuit filed by petitioner, Joe Dickerson, be dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. Petitioner has not filed an objection to the Report and Recommendation and the time for filing an objection has expired.
Where no party has objected to the Magistrate Judge's report and recommendation, the Court need not conduct a de novo review of it. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) ("A judge of the court shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings and recommendations to which objection is made."). In such cases, the Court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record. Douglass v. United Serv. Auto Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1420 (5th Cir. 1996). Having conducted the required review, the Court finds that Judge Myers' Report and Recommendation is neither clearly erroneous nor contrary to law.
Accordingly,
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the [34] Report and Recommendation entered by United Magistrate Judge Robert P. Myers is ADOPTED as the opinion of this Court. Petitioner's claims are hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for failure to prosecute.
SO ORDERED AND ADJUDGED this the 19th day of May, 2021.
