Seneca Specialty Insurance Company, ) ) Defendant. ) )

ORDER

Pending before the Court is the magistrate judge’s Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) from February 16, 2024 (Doc. No. 53). The R&R recommends that the Court deny Defendant’s motion to dismiss for failure to prosecute (Doc. No. 51). Defendant has not filed any opposition to the R&R. The failure to object to a report and recommendation releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter. Frias v. Frias, No. 2:18-cv-00076,

, at *2 (M.D. Tenn. Feb. 12, 2019); Hart v. Bee Property Mgmt., No. 18-cv-11851,

, at * 1 (E.D. Mich. March 18, 2019) (citing Thomas v. Arn,

(1985)). The district court is not required to review, under a de novo or any other standard, those aspects of the report and recommendation to which no objection is made. Ashraf v. Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc.,

(W.D. Tenn. 2018); Benson v. Walden Security, No. 3:18-cv-0010,

, at *3 (M.D. Tenn. Dec. 4, 2018). The district court should adopt the magistrate judge’s findings and rulings to which no specific objection is filed.

Accordingly, the R&R (Doc. No. 53) is adopted as unopposed, and the motion at Doc. No. 51 is DENIED. IT IS SO ORDERED.
