Eric Smith,                           Case No. 23-CV-2196 (JMB/LIB)      

               Plaintiff,                                                


                                    ORDER ON REPORT AND                  
v.                                                                       
                                      RECOMMENDATION                     


City of Duluth, et al.,                                                  

               Defendants.                                               


    This matter is before the court on the Report and Recommendation (R&R) of United 
States Magistrate Judge Leo I. Brisbois dated February 21, 2024.  (Doc. No. 7.)  The R&R 
recommends that Plaintiff Eric Smith’s Complaint under 
42 U.S.C. § 1983
 (Doc. No. 1) be 
dismissed without prejudice under Rule 41(b) for failure to prosecute.  (See Doc. No. 7.)  
Smith did not file any objections to the R&R and the time to do so has now passed.  See D. 
Minn. L.R. 72.2(b)(1).                                                    
    In the absence of timely objections, the Court reviews the R&R for clear error.  See 
Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Grinder v. Gammon, 
73 F.3d 793, 795
 (8th Cir. 1996) (per curiam).  
Finding no clear error, and based upon all the files, records, and proceedings in the above-
captioned matter, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:                              
      1.  The R&R (Doc. No. 7) is ADOPTED;                               
      2.  This matter is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE under Federal Rule of 
         Civil Procedure 41(b) for failure to prosecute.                 
    LET JUDGMENT BE ENTERED ACCORDINGLY.
