UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:19-cv-00004 Andrew Hill, Plaintiff, v. Maxey Cerliano, Defendant. Before BARKER, District Judge ORDER Hill filed this lawsuit on January 2, 2019. Doc. 1. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and (3), the case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge K. Nicole Mitchell. Doc. 3. On July 16, 2019, Judge Mitchell issued a report and recommendation that the case be dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. Doc. 6. This recommendation was based on Hill’s failure to notify the court of his current mailing address or whereabouts. Id. On the day Judge Mitchell issued her report and recommendation, a copy was mailed to Hill’s last-known address. On September 12, 2019, the report and recommenda- tion was mailed to Hill again. Since that time, Hill has neither objected to the report and recommendation nor filed anything else with the court in this matter. Once it is served with a copy of a magistrate judge’s re- port and recommendation, a party has 14 days to file any ob- jections. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b6)(2). When no party objects to the report and recommendation, the district court “need only sat- isfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record.” Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1420 (Sth Cir. 1996) (en banc) (quoting Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) advisory committee’s note (1983)), superseded by statute on other grounds, 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (extending time to object from 10 to 14 days)). As there is no clear error in the magistrate judge’s re- port and recommendation, the court adopts it. Therefore, this action is dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute. Any pending motions are denied as moot. The clerk of the court is directed to close this case. So ordered by the court on December 6, 2019. piel BARKER United States District Judge -2-
