Larry G. Schultz v. 3M Company and Solventum Company

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF MINNESOTA

Larry G. Schultz, Case No. 25-cv-3223 (JMB/SGE)

Plaintiff,

v. ORDER

3M Company and Solventum Company,

Defendants.

This matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (R&R) of Magistrate Judge Shannon G. Elkins. (Doc. No. 7.) The R&R recommends dismissal without prejudice of the Complaint (Doc. No. 1) and denial of Schultz’s Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Doc. No. 2). Because no timely objections were filed, see D. Minn. L.R. 72.2(b)(1), the Court reviews the R&R for clear error, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Grinder v. Gammon, 73 F.3d 793, 795 (8th Cir. 1996) (per curiam). Finding no clear error, and based upon all the files, records, and proceedings in the above-captioned matter, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 1. The R&R (Doc. No. 7) is ADOPTED.

2. This action is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.

3. The Motion to Proceed In Forma Pauperis (Doc. No. 2) is DENIED as moot.

LET JUDGMENT BE ENTERED ACCORDINGLY. Dated: October 28, 2025 /s/ Jeffrey M. Bryan Judge Jeffrey M. Bryan United States District Court
