UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION MOE M. AL-DOLEMY, Plaintiff, Civil Case No. 21-10809 Honorable Linda V. Parker V. SAMER KATO, JOHN DOE 1, JOHN DOE 2, and FBI DETROIT FIELD OFFICE, Defendants. / OPINION AND ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S OCTOBER 26, 2021 REPORT & RECOMMENDATION, SUMMARILY DISMISSING PLAINTIFF’S CLAIMS AGAINST DEFENDANTS SAMER KATO AND JOHN DOES 1 AND 2, AND TERMINATING THEM AS PARTIES Plaintiff commenced this lawsuit against Defendants on April 6, 2021, claiming that Defendants violated the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by failing to respond to his requests for information concerning his arrest in January 2017. The matter has been assigned to Magistrate Judge Jonathan J.C. Grey for all pretrial proceedings, including a hearing and determination of all non-dispositive matters pursuant to

(b)(1)(A) and/or a report and recommendation

on all dispositive matters pursuant to

(b)(1)(B). On October 26, 2021, Magistrate Judge Grey issued a Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that the Court summarily dismiss

Plaintiff's claims against Defendants Samer Kato and John Does | and 2 under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(1). (ECF No. 25.) Magistrate Judge Grey finds that Plaintiff cannot state a viable claim against these individuals under FOIA and has not otherwise made any allegations against them. (/d. at Pg ID 131.) At the conclusion of the R&R, Magistrate Judge Grey advises the parties that they may object to and seek review of the R&R within fourteen days of service

upon them. (/d. at Pg ID 132.) Magistrate Judge Grey further specifically advises the parties that “if a party fails to timely file specific objections, any further right of appeal is waived.” (/d. (quoting Howard v. Sec’y of Health & Human Servs.,

(6th Cir. 1981).) Neither party filed objections to the R&R. The Court has carefully reviewed the R&R and concurs with the conclusions reached by Magistrate Judge Grey. The Court therefore adopts the R&R. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff's claims against Defendants Samer Kato and John Does 1 and 2 are summarily DISMISSED and these Defendants are TERMINATED AS PARTIES to this action. IT IS SO ORDERED. s/ Linda V. Parker LINDA V. PARKER U.S. DISTRICT JUDGE Dated: January 12, 2022
