Jenes v. Secretary of Veterans Affairs

Opinion

FILED UNITED STATES DisTRIcT court November 07, 2028 WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS SAN ANTONIO DIVISION ay: NM EVGHENIA JENES, §

Plaintiff, : v. : CIVIL NO. SA-22-CV-740-OLG SECRETARY OF VETERANS : AFFAIRS, § Defendant. : ORDER The Court has considered United States Magistrate Judge Elizabeth S. Chestney’s Report and Recommendation (the “Recommendation”) (Dkt. No. 44), filed on October 4, 2024, concerning Defendant Secretary of Veterans Affairs’ Motion for Summary Judgment (Dkt. No. 37). Neither party filed timely objections to the Recommendation. When no party objects to a magistrate judge’s 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.”); FED. R. Civ. P. 72(b). Rather, the Court need only review the magistrate judge’s 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 Recommendation and is of the opinion that it is correct. Accordingly, the Recommendation (Dkt. No. 44) is ACCEPTED and, for the reasons set forth therein, the Motion for Summary Judgment (Dkt. No. 37) is GRANTED. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Plaintiff's claims of national origin and sex discrimination and retaliation under Title VII are DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this case is CLOSED.

IT ISSO ORDERED. SIGNED this N\ aay of November, 2024. Owe, ORLANDO L. GARCIA UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
