The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love pursuant to

. On June 1, 2020, Judge Love issued a Report and Recommendation (Docket No. 7) recommending that the action be dismissed without prejudice for failure to timely effect service on Defendant and failure to comply with a Court order.

at 1–2. This Court reviews the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge de novo only if a party objects within fourteen days of service of the Report and Recommendation.

(b)(1). In conducting a de novo review, the Court examines the entire record and makes an independent assessment under the law. Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass’n,

(5th Cir. 1996) (en banc), superseded on other grounds by statute,

(b)(1) (extending the time to file objections from ten to fourteen days). Here, Plaintiff did not file objections in the prescribed period. The Court therefore reviews the Magistrate Judge’s findings for clear error or abuse of discretion and reviews his legal conclusions to determine whether they are contrary to law. See United States v. Wilson,

(5th Cir. 1989), cert. denied,

(1989) (holding that, if no objections to a Magistrate Judge’s Report are filed, the standard of review is “clearly erroneous, abuse of discretion and contrary to law’’). Having reviewed the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge (Docket No. 7) as the findings of this Court. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge’s Report (Docket No. 7) be ADOPTED. It is further ORDERED that the above-styled civil action is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for failure to timely effect service on Defendant and for failure to comply with the Court’s order. So ORDERED and SIGNED this 17th day of June, 2020. oe D Kobe JERQMY D, RERNODIE UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
