Marie Rosena Gilles-Jean v. Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd.

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

CASE NO. 1:22-cv-22780-GAYLES/TORRES

MARIE ROSENA GILLES-JEAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES, LTD.,

Defendant. ___________________________________________/

ORDER

THIS CAUSE comes before the Court on Defendant Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd.’s (“Defendant”) Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (“Motion”). [ECF No. 98]. On April 17, 2023, the Court referred the case to Magistrate Judge Edwin G. Torres for a ruling on all pre-trial, non-dispositive matters and a Report and Recommendation on all dispositive matters. [ECF No. 51]. On May 11, 2026, Judge Torres issued his report, recommending that the Motion be denied. [ECF No. 125]. Defendant timely objected to Judge Torres’ Report and Recommendation. [ECF No. 140]. A district court may accept, reject, or modify a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). The objected portions of the report and recommendation are accorded de novo review if those objections “pinpoint the specific findings that the party disagrees with.” United States v. Schultz, 565 F.3d 1353, 1360 (11th Cir. 2009); see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3). Any portions of the report and recommendation to which no specific objection is made are reviewed only for clear error. Liberty Am. Ins. Grp., Inc. v. WestPoint Underwriters, L.L.C., 199 F. Supp. 2d 1271, 1276 (M.D. Fla. 2001); accord Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 F. App’x 781, 784 (11th Cir. 2006). After conducting a de novo review of the record, the Court agrees with Judge Torres’ well-reasoned analysis and conclusion that the Motion should be denied. CONCLUSION Therefore, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows: (1) The Report and Recommendation, [ECF No. 125], is ADOPTED in full. (2) Defendant Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd.’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings, [ECF No. 98], is DENIED. DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers at Miami, Florida, this 5th day of June, 2026.
