United States v. 1,983 Rounds Assorted Ammunition

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT February 11, 2025 SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS Nathan Ochsner, Clerk HOUSTON DIVISION UNITED STATES OF AMERICA § § Plaintiff, § § v. § Civil Action No. 4:22-CV-00954 § 1,983 ROUNDS ASSORTED § AMMUNITION, § § Defendant. § MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER Pending before the Court is the January 23, 2025, Memorandum and Recommendation (“M&R”) prepared by Magistrate Judge Christina Bryan. (Dkt. No. 23).

Judge Bryan made findings and conclusions and recommended denying Claimant Garrett Black’s letter Motion, (Dkt. No. 22), which Judge Bryan construed as a motion to alter or amend the judgment, (see Dkt. No. 23 at 2–3).

The Parties were provided proper notice and the opportunity to object to the M&R. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). No party filed an objection. As a result, review is straightforward: plain error. Guillory v. PPG Indus., 434 F.3d 303, 308 (5th Cir. 2005). No plain error appears.

Accordingly, the Court accepts the M&R and adopts it as the opinion of the Court.

It is therefore ordered that: (1) Magistrate Judge Bryan’s M&R, (Dkt. No. 23), is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED in its entirety as the holding of the Court; and (2) Claimant Garrett Black’s Motion, (Dkt. No. 22), is DENIED.

It is SO ORDERED.

Signed on February 7, 2025.
