ORDER ACCEPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S RECOMMENDATION _____________________________________________________________________
This matter is before the Court on the Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Nina Y. Wang filed on September 8, 2020 [Docket No. 61]. The Recommendation states that objections to the Recommendation must be filed within fourteen days after its service on the parties. See
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). The Recommendation was served on September 8, 2020. No party has objected to the Recommendation.1 In the absence of an objection, the district court may review a magistrate judge’s recommendation under any standard it deems appropriate. See Summers v. Utah,
927 F.2d 1165, 1167(10th Cir. 1991); see also Thomas v. Arn,

In this matter, the Court has reviewed the Recommendation to satisfy itself that there is “no clear error on the face of the record.”2 Fed. R. Civ. P.
72(b), Advisory Committee Notes. Based on this review, the Court has concluded that the Recommendation is a correct application of the facts and the law. Accordingly, it is ORDERED as follows: 1. The Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Nina Y. Wang [Docket No. 61] is ACCEPTED; 2. Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss [Docket No. 18] is GRANTED; 3. Plaintiff’s claims under Title VII, the ADA, and the PDA against Tim Travis in his individual capacity are DISMISSED with prejudice; 4. Any claim for disability discrimination pursuant to Title VII is DISMISSED with prejudice;
5. All other claims are DISMISSED without prejudice; 6. This case is closed. DATED September 30, 2020. BY THE COURT:

2 This standard of review is something less than a “clearly erroneous or contrary to law” standard of review, Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(a), which in turn is less than a de novo review. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b).
