IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS MIDLAND/ODESSA DIVISION

PATRICIA M. HUNSLEY, § Plaintiff, § § NO. MO:22-CV-249-DC v. § § CREDIT SAGE, LLC, § Defendant. §

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION BEFORE THE COURT is United States Magistrate Judge Ronald C. Griffin’s Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) filed in the above-captioned cause on March 7, 2023, in connection with Plaintiff’s Motion for Default Judgment. (Doc. 10). This matter was referred to the Magistrate Judge. See

(b); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72. Neither party filed objections, and the deadline to do so has expired. Any party who desires to object to a Magistrate Judge’s findings and recommendations must serve and file written objections within fourteen (14) days after being served with a copy of the findings and recommendations.

(b)(1). Failure to file written objections to the R&R within fourteen (14) days after being served with a copy shall bar that party from de novo review by the district court of the proposed findings and recommendations.

Moreover, except upon grounds of plain error, it shall also bar the party from appellate review of proposed factual findings and legal conclusions accepted by the district court to which no objections were filed. Id.; Thomas v. Arn,

, 150–53 (1985); United States v. Wilson,

(5th Cir. 1989) (per curiam). Having reviewed the R&R, the Court finds it neither clearly erroneous nor contrary to law. Therefore, the Court ADOPTS the R&R (Doc. 10) and GRANTS Plaintiff’s Motion for Default Judgment (Doc. 8). It is therefore ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED that judgment is entered in favor of Plaintiff against Defendant as follows: (1) $199.00 in actual damages; (2) $597.00 in punitive damages; (3) $2,169.15 in attorney fees; and (4) post-judgment interest at 4.46% per annum pursuant to

from this date until paid. It is finally ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court CLOSE the case. It is so ORDERED. SIGNED this 31st day of March, 2023.
