Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA TAMPA DIVISION

REGINA NELSON,

Plaintiff,

v. Case No. 8:24-cv-2810-TPB-SPF

KELLY SERVICES,

Defendants. /

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION This matter is before the Court on consideration of the report and recommendation of Sean P. Flynn, United States Magistrate Judge, entered on April 18, 2025. (Doc. 3). Judge Flynn recommends that Plaintiff’s complaint (Doc. 1) be dismissed without prejudice, and that her motion to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 2) be denied without prejudice. No objection to the report and recommendation has been filed, and the time to object has expired. After conducting a careful and complete review of the findings and recommendations, a district judge may accept, reject, or modify the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Camby v. Davis, 718 F.2d 198, 199 (4th Cir. 1983); Williams v. Wainwright, 681 F.2d 732 (11th Cir. 1982). A district court must “make a de novo determination of those portions of the [report and recommendation] to which an objection is made.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). When no objection is filed, a court reviews the report and recommendation for clear error. Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 F. App’x 781, 784 (11th Cir. 2006); Nettles v. Wainwright, 677 F.2d 404, 409 (5th Cir. 1982). Upon due consideration of the record, including Judge Flynn’s well-reasoned report and recommendation, the Court adopts the report and recommendation in full. Consequently, the complaint is dismissed without prejudice, with leave to amend. The motion to proceed in forma pauperis is denied without prejudice, with leave to file a new motion along with the amended complaint. Accordingly, it is ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED: (1) Judge Flynn’s report and recommendation (Doc. 3) is AFFIRMED and ADOPTED and INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE into this Order for all purposes, including appellate review. (2) The complaint (Doc. 1) is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. (3) Plaintiff's motion to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 2) is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE. (A) On or before June 9, 2025, Plaintiff is directed to file an amended complaint that sets forth factual allegations establishing a claim for relief and a motion to proceed without costs. Failure to file an amended complaint as directed will result in this Order becoming a final judgment. DONE and ORDERED in Chambers, in Tampa, Florida, this 8th day of May, 2025. NAP. GA.
