ORDER ADOPTING R&R

HURLEY, Senior District Judge :

Presently before the Court is the Report and Recommendation, dated April 11, 2017 ("R&R"), of Magistrate Judge Steven I Locke recommending that (1) the Motion to Quash Service of Process pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(5) be denied as to Defendant John Tidrow; (2) the Motion to Quash Service of Process pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(5) be granted as to Defendants Bruce Klein, Matthew Olugbenga Aworeni, and Honeyfield Investments Ltd.; and (3) Plaintiff be given 30 days to properly serve Defendants Bruce Klein, Matthew Olugbenga Aworeni, and Honeyfield Investments Ltd. More than fourteen days have elapsed since service of the R&R and no objections have been filed.

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72, this Court has reviewed the Report and Recommendation for clear error, and finding none, now concurs in both its reasoning and its result. The Court therefore adopts the April 11, 2017 Report & Recommendation of Judge Locke as if set forth herein. Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that (1) the Motion to Quash Service of Process pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(5) is denied as to Defendant John Tidrow; (2) the Motion to Quash Service of Process pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(5) is granted as to Defendants Bruce Klein, Matthew Olugbenga Aworeni, and Honeyfield Investments Ltd.; and (3) Plaintiff shall have 30 days from the date of this Order to properly serve Defendants Bruce Klein, Matthew Olugbenga Aworeni, and Honeyfield Investments Ltd.
