When no party objects to the magistrate judge’s report and rec- ommendation, the court reviews it only for clear error. See Douglass vy. United Servs. Auto. Ass’n,

medical-deliberate-indifference claims against defendant Owens are dismissed without prejudice for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. So ordered by the court on July 19, 2024. faked BARKER United States District Judge
