Amber T. Heaviland v. Department of Family and Protective Services

Opinion

FILED UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT April 13, 2026 MESAN ANTONIO DIVISION, WSTHNDISTRCTOrTENA BY: NM AMBER T. HEAVILAND, § DEPUTY Plaintiff, : v. : CIVIL NO. SA-26-CV-1092-OLG DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY AND : PROTECTIVE SERVICES, § Defendant. : ORDER The Court has considered United States Magistrate Judge Henry J. Bemporad’s Report and Recommendation (the “Report”) (Dkt. No. 5) concerning Plaintiff Amber T. Heaviland’s request to proceed in forma pauperis in these proceedings. See Dkt. No. |. Plaintiff did not file objections to the Report. When no party objects to a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, the Court need not conduct a de novo review of the entire record. See 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 recommendation to which objection is made.”); R. Civ. P. 72(b). Rather, the Court need only review the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation to determine whether it is clearly erroneous or contrary to law. United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219, 1221 (Sth Cir. 1989). The Court has reviewed the Report and is of the opinion that it is correct. Accordingly, the Report (Dkt. No. 5) is ACCEPTED and, for the reasons set forth therein, Plaintiff's case is DISMISSED as frivolous under § 1915(e). Any pending motions are DISMISSED AS MOOT. This case is CLOSED. IT IS SO ORDERED.
