MARIAH JONES v. BROOKDALE SENIOR LIVING

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA MARIAH JONES, Plaintiff, v. 1:26-CV-142-DAB-JGM BROOKDALE SENIOR LIVING, Defendant.

ORDER This matter is before the Court for review of the Order and Recommendation filed on February 19, 2026. 2/19/26 Order, Memorandum Opinion and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge (D.E. 4). The Magistrate Judge recommends dismissing Plaintiff’s action without prejudice under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) for failure to state a claim. Id. The deadline for objections passed on March 9, 2026, and no parties have objected to the Recommendation.

Because there are no objections, the Court “must ‘only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation.’”

Diamond v. Colonial Life & Acc. Ins. Co., 416 F.3d 310, 315 (4th Cir. 2005) (quoting Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 72 advisory committee’s note). This Court has accordingly reviewed the Recommendation and concludes it contains no clear error.

Accordingly, it is ordered that the Magistrate Judge’s Recommendation, 2/19/26 Recommendation, is adopted and this action is dismissed without prejudice.

A Judgment dismissing this action will be entered contemporaneously with this Order.

This the 10th day of March, 2026. /s/ David A. Bragdon United States District Judge
