LAYNE ALAN DEROUEN, Plaintiff, v. ARANSAS COUNTY DETENTION CENTER, et al., Defendants.

NELVA GONZALES RAMOS UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM AND RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

NELVA GONZALES RAMOS UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

On August 30, 2024, United States Magistrate Judge Mitchel Neurock issued his “Memorandum and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge” (D.E. 68), recommending that Defendant Austin Cox's motion for summary judgment on qualified immunity (D.E. 44) be granted and this action be dismissed. The parties were provided proper notice of, and opportunity to object to, the Magistrate Judge's memorandum and recommendation. Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b); 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); General Order No. 200213. No objections have been timely filed.

When no timely objection to a magistrate judge's memorandum and recommendation is filed, the district court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record and accept the magistrate judge's memorandum and recommendation. Guillory v. PPG Indus., Inc., 434 F.3d 303, 308 (5th Cir. 2005) (citing Douglass v. United Servs. Auto Ass'n, 79 F.3d 1415, 1420 (5th Cir. 1996)).

Having reviewed the findings of fact and conclusions of law set forth in the Magistrate Judge's memorandum and recommendation (D.E. 68), and all other relevant documents in the record, and finding no clear error, the Court ADOPTS as its own the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge. Accordingly, Officer Cox's motion for summary judgment (D.E. 44) is GRANTED and this action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
