UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO WESTERN DIVISION

JOHN KLOSTERMAN

Plaintiff, Case No. 1:20-cv-119 v. JUDGE DOUGLAS R. COLE Magistrate Judge Bowman SEDAMSVILLE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, et al.,

Respondent.

ORDER

This cause comes before the Court on the Magistrate Judge’s November 3, 2020 Report and Recommendation ((“R&R”), Doc. 67). The Magistrate Judge recommends that the Court: (1) DENY AS MOOT the following motions: Plaintiff John Klosterman’s Motion for Default Judgment (Doc. 35); Klosterman’s Motion to Disqualify Counsel for City Defendants (Doc. 55); and Klosterman’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 56); (2) DENY Klosterman’s Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (Doc. 64); and (3) GRANT the following motions: City Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 27); Defendant the Honorable Bernie Bouchard’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 33); Defendants Patricia A. Burke and Sedamsville Community Development Corporation’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. 51); Defendants Sedamsville Civic Association and Cindy Bastin’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. 52); and Defendants Hamilton County Landbank, Kelley Allesee, and Jessica Powell’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. 53). The R&R advised all parties that failure to object within the 14 days specified by the R&R may result in forfeiture of rights on appeal, which includes the right to District Court review. (See R&R, Doc. 67, #3561); see also Thomas v. Arn,

(1985) (“There is no indication that Congress, in enacting § 636(b)(1)(C), intended to require a district judge to review a magistrate’s report to which no objections are filed.”); Berkshire v. Beauvais,

(6th Cir. 2019) (noting “fail[ure] to file an objection to the magistrate judge’s R & R … is forfeiture”);

(b)(1)(C). Nearly two months have now passed, and Klosterman has yet to file an objection to the R&R. Therefore, the Court ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 67) and

DENIES AS MOOT: Klosterman’s Motion for Default Judgment (Doc. 35); Klosterman’s Motion to Disqualify Counsel for City Defendants (Doc. 55); and Klosterman’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 56); DENIES Klosterman’s Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (Doc. 64); and GRANTS City Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 27); Defendant the Honorable Bernie Bouchard’s Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 33); Defendants Patricia A. Burke and Sedamsville Community Development

Corporation’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. 51); Defendants Sedamsville Civic Association and Cindy Bastin’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. 52); and Defendants Hamilton County Landbank, Kelley Allesee, and Jessica Powell’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (Doc. 53). The Court DIRECTS the Clerk to enter judgment accordingly.
