UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION

ROBERT L. DYKES-BEY,

Plaintiff, Case No. 2:23-cv-11998

v. Honorable Susan K. DeClercq United States District Judge EMILY CECIL, et al., Honorable Curtis Ivy, Jr. Defendants. United States Magistrate Judge ___________________________________/

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF No. 34) AND GRANTING DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (ECF No. 27)

On August 11, 2025, Magistrate Judge Curtis Ivy, Jr., issued a report, ECF No. 34, recommending that this Court grant the motion for summary judgment filed by all defendants, ECF No. 27. Judge Ivy provided 14 days to object, ECF No. 34 at PageID.505, but neither party did so.1 They have therefore forfeited their right to appeal Judge Ivy’s findings. See Berkshire v. Dahl,

, 530–31 (6th Cir. 2019) (citing Thomas v. Arn,

(1985)). Moreover, having reviewed the report and recommendation and the parties’ filings, this Court agrees with Judge Ivy’s recommendation and finds no clear error. So the report will be adopted in full.

1 Plaintiff requested, and was granted, two extensions of time to submit his objections. ECF Nos. 35, 38. The last extension expired on November 5, 2025, yet no objections were filed. Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation, ECF No. 34, is ADOPTED.

Further, it is ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion for Summary Judgment, ECF No. 27, is GRANTED. Plaintiff’s Complaint, ECF No. 1, is therefore DISMISSED.

This is a final order and closes the above-captioned case.
