Russell Kershaw v. Travis County Judge Andy Brown, et al.

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS AUSTIN DIVISION

RUSSELL KERSHAW, § Plaintiff, § § v. § 1:25-CV-01357-ADA-SH § TRAVIS COUNTY JUDGE ANDY § BROWN, et al., § Defendants. ORDER Before the Court is the report and recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Susan Hightower. Dkt. 4. Judge Hightower issued the report and recommendation on September 24, 2025. As of the date of this order, no party has filed objections to the report and recommendation. A party may file specific, written objections to a magistrate judge’s proposed findings and recommendations within fourteen days after being served with a copy of the report and recommendation, thereby securing de novo review by the district court. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). When no objections are timely filed, the Court reviews the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation for clear error. See United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219, 1221 (5th Cir. 1989). Because the parties have not filed timely objections, the Court has reviewed Judge Hightower’s report and recommendation for clear error. Having found no such error, the Court finds that the report and recommendation should be adopted. Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge (Dkt. 4) is ADOPTED. The Plaintiffs lawsuit is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). Accordingly, the Clerk’s Office is directed to CLOSE this case. SIGNED on October 21, 2025.
