IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS TYLER DIVISION JAWONN DARIUS CASTLEBERRY, § #131099 § § Plaintiff, § § v. § Case No. 6:23-cv-387-JDK-JDL § GREGG COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE, § § Defendant. § ORDER ADOPTING THE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE Plaintiff Jawonn Darius Castleberry, proceeding pro se, filed this lawsuit under

while he was an inmate of the Gregg County Jail and did not pay the filing fee. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love for findings of fact, conclusions of law, and recommendations for the disposition of the case. On September 29, 2023, Judge Love issued a Report recommending that Plaintiff’s lawsuit be dismissed for failure to prosecute because Plaintiff had failed to comply with the Court’s order to satisfy the filing fee requirement and amend his complaint. Docket No. 5. A copy of this Report was mailed to Plaintiff, but it was returned as undeliverable. Docket No. 6. Publicly available records of the Gregg County Jail establish that Plaintiff was released from jail on September 11, 2023. See Gregg County Jail Records Search Detail for Booking #: 23-00130782, available at http://beta.co.gregg.tx.us/OdysseyPA/JailingDetail.aspx?JailingID=443955 (last visited Nov. 3, 2023). Plaintiff has not objected, filed a notice of change of address, or taken any other action to prosecute this case since that date. This Court reviews the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge de

novo only if a party objects within fourteen days 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(5th Cir. 1996) (en banc), superseded on other grounds by statute,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 object 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 the record in this case,

the Court finds no clear error or abuse of discretion and no conclusions contrary to law. Accordingly, the Court hereby ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge (Docket No. 5) as the findings of this Court. It is therefore ORDERED that this case is DISMISSED without prejudice for failure to prosecute. All pending motions are DENIED as MOOT. So ORDERED and SIGNED this 6th day of November, 2023. G5, LHe UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
