UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION HAROLD J. JACKSON, JR, 2:22-CV-10937-TGB-KGA Appellant, HON. TERRENCE G. BERG HON. KIMBERLY G. ALTMAN vs. ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., (ECF NO. 21) Appellee. This matter is before the Court on Magistrate Judge Kimberly G. Altman’s September 6, 2022 Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 21), recommending that Appellee’s Motion to Dismiss Appeal as Moot (ECF No. 16) be GRANTED. The Court has reviewed the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation. The law provides that either party may serve and file written objections “[w]ithin fourteen days after being served with a copy” of a report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The district court will make a “de novo determination of those portions of the report . . . to which objection is made.” Id. Where, as here, neither party objects to the report, the district court is not obligated to independently review the record. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-52 (1985). The Court will therefore accept the Magistrate’s Report and Recommendation of September 6, 2022 as this Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Altman’s Report and Recommendation of September 6, 2022 is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED. It is FURTHER ORDERED that Appellee’s Motion to Dismiss Appeal as Moot is GRANTED and that Appellant’s appeal is DISMISSED. IT IS SO ORDERED this 13th day of October, 2022.
