IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF SOUTH CAROLINA

Shauna Blume, C/A No. 2:22-cv-3295-JFA-MGB

Plaintiff,

v. ORDER Barnwell County Detention Center,

Defendants.

Shauna Blume (“Plaintiff”), proceeding pro se, filed this civil action pursuant to

, alleging violations of her constitutional rights. The Complaint has been filed pursuant to

; § 1915A. In accordance with

(b) and Local Civil Rule 73.02(B)(2) (D.S.C.), the case was referred to the Magistrate Judge for initial review. After performing an initial review of the complaint pursuant to the procedural provisions of the Prison Litigation Reform Act (“PLRA”),

Stat. 1321 (1996), including

and 28 U.S.C. § 1915A, the Magistrate Judge assigned to this action1 issued an order informing Plaintiff that the complaint contained several deficiencies as drafted and providing her with time to file an amended complaint to correct those deficiencies. (ECF No. 1).

1 The Magistrate Judge’s review is made in accordance with

(b)(1)(B) and Local Civil Rule 73.02(B)(2)(d) (D.S.C.). The Magistrate Judge makes only a recommendation to this Court. The recommendation has no presumptive weight, and the responsibility to make a final determination remains with the Court. Mathews v. Weber,

(1976). After Plaintiff failed to respond, the Magistrate Judge prepared a thorough Report and Recommendation (“Report”). (ECF No. 6). Within the Report, the Magistrate Judge

opines the Complaint is subject to dismissal for failure to prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41.

The Report sets forth, in detail, the relevant facts and standards of law on this matter, and this Court incorporates those facts and standards without a recitation. Plaintiff was advised of her right to object to the Report, which was entered on the docket on October 24, 2022.

The Magistrate Judge required Plaintiff to file objections

by November 7, 2022.

Plaintiff failed to file objections or otherwise address the deficiencies in the complaint. Thus, this matter is ripe for review. A district court is only required to conduct a de novo review of the specific portions of the Magistrate Judge’s Report to which an objection is made. See

(b); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Carniewski v. W. Virginia Bd. of Prob. & Parole,

(4th

Cir. 1992). In the absence of specific objections to portions of the Magistrate’s Report, this Court is not required to give an explanation for adopting the recommendation. See Camby v. Davis,

(4th Cir. 1983). Here, Plaintiff has failed to raise any objections and therefore this Court is not required to give an explanation for adopting the recommendation. A review of the Report

and prior orders indicates that the Magistrate Judge correctly concluded that Plaintiff’s Complaint is subject to summary dismissal for failure to prosecute and failure to follow a court order. After carefully reviewing the applicable laws, the record in this case, and the Report, this Court finds the Magistrate Judge’s recommendation fairly and accurately summarizes the facts and applies the correct principles of law. Accordingly, this Court adopts the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation and incorporates it herein by reference. (ECF No. 6). Consequently, this action is summarily dismissed without prejudice. IT IS SO ORDERED. peg Cader tons November 28, 2022 Joseph F. Anderson, Jr. Columbia, South Carolina United States District Judge
