Pierre v. Axios Industrial Maintenance Contractors, Inc.

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA

TAYLOR PIERRE CIVIL ACTION

VERSUS NO. 24-2484

SOCIAL SECURITY SECTION “R” (1) ADMINISTRATION

ORDER The Court has reviewed the amended complaint,1 the record, the applicable law, and Magistrate Judge Janis van Meerveld’s Report and Recommendation (“R&R”).2 On April 17, 2025, Magistrate Judge van Meerveld issued an R&R, recommending that the Court dismiss without prejudice plaintiff’s complaint because plaintiff has failed to abide by the Court’s order and respond to defendant’s outstanding discovery requests.3 Plaintiff did not object to the R&R. Therefore, the Court reviews the R&R for clear error. See Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass’n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1430 (5th Cir. 1996) (en banc), superseded by statute on other grounds, 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) advisory committee’s note (1983) (“When no timely objection is filed, the court need only satisfy itself that

1 R. Doc. 16. 2 R. Doc. 31. 3 Id. at 3. there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation.”). The Court finds no clear error. Accordingly, the Court adopts the Magistrate Judge’s R&R as its opinion. The Court DISMISSES WITHOUT PREJUDICE that plaintiffs complaint for want of prosecution.

New Orleans, Louisiana, this 12th day of May, 2025.
