SUDDABY, United States District Judge DECISION and ORDER Currently before the Court, in this pro se prisoner civil rights action filed by Jessie Engles (“Plaintiff”) against Dr. Zaki and Nurse Practitioner Corigliano of Marcy Correctional Facility, Dr. Dinello of Auburn Correctional Facility, and Drs. Rahman and Changlai of Upstate SUNY Medical Center Hospital (“Defendants”), is United States Magistrate Judge Daniel J. Stewart’s Report-Recommendation recommending that Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint (Dkt. No. 68) be

stricken for failure to comply with Local Rule 15.1 of the Local Rules of Practice for this Court, and that Defendant Changlai’s motion to dismiss (Dkt. No. 75) be denied as moot. (Dkt. No. 77.) Plaintiff has not filed an Objection to the Report-Recommendation, and the time in which to do so has expired. (See generally Docket Sheet.) After carefully reviewing the relevant papers herein, including Magistrate Judge Stewart’s thorough Report-Recommendation, the Court can find no clear error in the Report- Recommendation:1 Magistrate Judge Stewart employed the proper standards, accurately recited

the facts, and reasonably applied the law to those facts. As a result, the Report-Recommendation is accepted and adopted in its entirety for the reasons stated therein. ACCORDINGLY, it is ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Stewart’s Report-Recommendation (Dkt. No. 77) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED in its entirety; and it is further ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint (Dkt. No. 68) be STRICKEN; and it is

1 When no objection is made to a report-recommendation, the Court subjects that report-recommendation to only a clear error review. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b), Advisory Committee Notes: 1983 Addition. When performing such a “clear error” review, “the court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation.” Id.; see also Batista v. Walker, 94-CV-2826,
