ORDER McKesson Corporation moves for default judgment against the defendants.

Mots. for Default J. (Docs. 27, 34). The Magistrate Judge recommended that I grant the motions. R&R (Doc. 35).

Bd. of Cnty. Comm’rs, 379 F. Supp. 3d 1244, 1246 (M.D. Fla. 2019). I conclude that default judgment against the defendants is appropriate for the reasons and to the extent the Magistrate Judge stated. See R&R at 2–4.

Accordingly, the following is ORDERED: 1. The Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation, (Doc. 35), is ADOPTED and made a part of this Order for all purposes.
