Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION

RSS WFCM2020-C55-MI RHM, LLC Case No. 21-11345 Plaintiff, Honorable Shalina D. Kumar Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti v.

RKJ HOTEL MANAGEMENT, LLC, et al. Defendants.

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF NO. 25) AND DENYING DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS (ECF NO. 10)

This matter is before the Court on the assigned Magistrate Judge’s February 28, 2022 Report and Recommendation (R&R) to deny Defendant Jeffrey Katofsky’s Motion to Dismiss. (ECF No. 25). As the R&R indicated, parties seeking review of the R&R could file specific written objections to it “[w]ithin fourteen days after being served with a copy.” 28 U.S.C. §636(b)(1). Where, as here, neither party objects to the R&R, the district court is not obligated to independently review the matter. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-152 (1985). Failure to file objections also waives any further right to appeal. See Smith v. Detroit Fed. of Teachers Local, 829 F.2d 1370, 1373 (6th Cir. 1987). Nevertheless, the Court has reviewed the R&R and finds that it is well-reasoned and supported by the applicable law. It will therefore accept the R&R as its own

opinion. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the R&R (ECF No. 25) is ADOPTED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant Katofsky’s Motion

to Dismiss (ECF No. 10) is DENIED.
