MONIQUE DOWARD, Case No. 24-cv-3970 (LMP/LIB) Plaintiff, v. ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION CITY OF KETTLE RIVER, et al.

Defendants.

Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of United States Magistrate Judge Leo I. Brisbois, which recommends dismissing defendant JT’s Towing Company because Plaintiff Monique Doward has not provided proof that she served that company with a summons or complaint or otherwise complied with the Court’s March 24, 2025 Order. ECF No. 26. No objections have been filed to the R&R in the time period permitted, and it is therefore reviewed 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 of the files, records, and proceedings in the above-captioned matter, IT IS ORDERED THAT: 1. The R&R (ECF No. 26) is ADOPTED; and 2. JT’s Towing Company is DISMISSED without prejudice.
