V. NO. 4:25-CV-30-DMB-JMV

GREENWOOD LEFLORE CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL DISTRICT, et al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

On April 7, 2025, United States Magistrate Judge Jane M. Virden issued a report (“R&R”) recommending that Evelyn W. Jacob’s case be dismissed without prejudice. Doc. #11. The R&R warned Jacob that “[h]er failure to file written objections to the [R&R] within (14) fourteen days … shall bar her, except upon grounds of plain error, from attacking on appeal the unobjected-to proposed factual findings and legal conclusions accepted by the district court.” Id. at 7. No objections to the R&R were filed.1 Under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), “[a] judge of the court shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report … to which objection is made.” “[P]lain error review applies ‘where a party did not object to a magistrate judge’s finding of fact, conclusions of law, or recommendation to the district court’ despite being ‘served with notice of the consequences of failing to object.’” Quintero v.

Alaniz, 278 F. Supp. 3d 944, 948 (S.D. Tex. 2017). Because the Court reviewed the R&R for plain error and concludes that the R&R is neither clearly erroneous nor contrary to law, the R&R [11] is ADOPTED as the order of the Court. This

case is DISMISSED without prejudice. SO ORDERED, this 2nd day of June, 2025. /s/Debra M. Brown UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
