ORDER
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff Wilfred Anderson, M.D.'s suit against the State of Ohio. (ECF No. 1). Plaintiff failed to pay the required filing fee or move for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, and was ordered to cure his deficiency by March 2, 2026. (ECF Nos. 2; 5). He failed to comply.
On March 9, 2026, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation recommending dismissal of the instant action pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) for failure to prosecute. That Report advised Plaintiff that he had fourteen days to raise objections. (ECF No. 6 at 2). It also notified Plaintiff that a failure to object within the applicable time period would result in a waiver of the right to have the district judge review the Report and Recommendation de novo. (Id.).
This Court has reviewed the Report and Recommendation. No objections have been filed, and the time for filing such objections under Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) has expired. This Court
ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 6) as its findings of facts and law. Plaintiff's action is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE for failure to prosecute.
