UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA TAMPA DIVISION ICON EV LCC, Plaintiff, v. Case No: 8:24-cv-609-KKM-AEP STEVE CORPLE, individually and doing business as Corple Corral Golf Carts, Defendant.

ORDER The United States Magistrate Judge recommends granting the plaintiff’s second motion for default judgment (Doc. 21). The deadline to object to the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation has passed without either party lodging an objection. Considering the record, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation.

After conducting a review of the findings and recommendations, a district judge may accept, reject, or modify a magistrate judge’s Report and Recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). If a party files a timely and specific objection to a finding of fact by a magistrate judge, the district court must conduct a de novo review with respect to that factual issue. Stokes v. Singletary, 952 F.2d 1567, 1576 (11th Cir. 1992). The district court reviews legal conclusions de novo, even in the absence of an objection. See Cooper-Houston v. S. Ry.

In the absence of any objection and after reviewing the factual allegations and legal conclusions, I adopt the Report and Recommendation.
