Opinion
Case No. 15-cv-11258
09-01-2015
DARTIS EXZOLUS WILLIS, Plaintiff, v. GREEN TREE SERVICING, LLC And CITIMORTGAGE, Defendant.
ORDER (1) ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF #17) , AND (2) GRANTING DEFENDANTS' MOTIONS TO DISMISS (ECF ## 10, 11)
On August 12, 2015, Magistrate Judge David Grand issued a Report and Recommendation ("R&R") recommending that the Court grant the motions to dismiss filed by Defendants Green Tree Servicing, LLC (ECF #10) and Citimortgage (ECF #11). (See ECF #17.) The R&R stated that the parties could object to and seek review of the recommendation within fourteen days. (See id. at 16, Pg. ID 276.) The R&R further advised that "[o]nly specific objections to this Report and Recommendation will be preserved for the Court's appellate review; raising some objections but not others will not preserve all objections a party may have." (Id.)
Neither party has objected to the R&R and the time to file such objections has expired. Failure to file objections to the R&R waives any further right to appeal. See Howard v. Sec'y of Health and Human Servs., 932 F.2d 505 (6th Cir. 1991); Smith v. Detroit Fed'n of Teachers Local 231, 829 F.2d 1370, 1373 (6th Cir. 1987). Likewise, the failure to object to the Magistrate Judge's R&R releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). The Court has nevertheless reviewed the R&R and agrees with the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge.
Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge's August 12, 2015, Report and Recommendation (ECF #17) is ADOPTED as the Opinion of this Court. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, for the reasons stated in the R&R, that the Court GRANTS the Motions to Dismiss filed by Defendant Green Tree Servicing, LLC (ECF #10) and Citimortgage (ECF #11).
