ANGELA HOLLINS, SROOKLYN OFFICE

Plaintiff, □ : ORDER v. 14-CV-6519 (WFK) (CLP) CITY OF NEW YORK, ef al., Defendants.

WILLIAM F. KUNTZ, II, United States District Judge: On March 19, 2019, Defendants filed a motion for bill of costs, seeking $631.40 in costs as the prevailing party pursuant to Rule 54 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Local Civil Rule 54.1. See ECF No. 72. On March 21, 2019, the Court referred this motion to Magistrate Judge Cheryl Pollak for a Report and Recommendation, See ECF No. 73. On October 25, 2019, Judge Pollak directed Plaintiff to respond to the motion by November 1, 2019, otherwise the motion would be considered unopposed. On November 14, 2019, Judge Pollak filed a Report and Recommendation recommending the Court grant Defendant’s request given no objections were raised by Plaintiff and “it does not appear that defendants will be prejudiced if served with exhibits in digital rather than hard copy form.” See ECF No. 74. Plaintiff did not file any objections to the Report and Recommendation. The Court reviews a Report and Recommendation for clear error when no objections have been filed. See Covey v. Simonton,

481 F. Supp. 2d 224, 226

(E.D.N.Y. 2007) (Garaufis, J.). We find no such error here. The Court therefore adopts the Report and Recommendation of

Judge Pollak in its entirety. Accordingly, it is hereby ordered Defendant’s motion for bill of costs be granted, in accordance with the Report and Recommendation.
