Angel C. Gonzales v. Freedom Mortgage Corporation

FILED January 28, 2026 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT cron texas WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS SAN ANTONIO DIVISION py NM DEPUTY ANGEL C GONZALES, § Plaintiff, : v. : NO. SA-25-CV-01177-OLG FREEDOM MORTGAGE : CORPORATION, § Defendant. : ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION The Court has considered United States Magistrate Judge Elizabeth S. Chestney’s Report and Recommendation (R&R), filed December 5, 2025, concerning Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint. (See R&R, Dkt. No. 15.)

Any party who desires to object to a Magistrate Judge’s findings and recommendations must serve and file specific written objections within 14 days after being served with a copy of the findings and recommendations. FED. R. Clv. P. 72(b)(2). A copy of the R&R was mailed by certified mail on December 8, 2025, and received on December 11, 2025. (See Dkt. No. 16.)

Because no party has objected to the Magistrate Judge’s findings or recommendations, the Court reviews the R&R for clear error. See United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219, 1221 (5th Cir. 1989); cf 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (“A judge of the court shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which an objection is made.”) After such review, the Court finds that the R&R is neither clearly erroneous nor contrary to law.

Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge’s R&R (Dkt. No. 15) and, for the reasons set forth therein, Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint (Dkt. No. 6) is GRANTED, and Plaintiff’s claims are DISMISSED.

This case is CLOSED.

It is so ORDERED.
