The pro se plaintiff, Ronald Brunson, brings this civil action against the named defendants. In his Complaint, Plaintiff alleges that various law enforcement agencies should have investigated the death of his brother as a crime, and he seeks monetary damages and “clemency.” ( See ECF No. 1). Plaintiff filed this action in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. § 1915.

The Magistrate Judge assigned to this action [1] has prepared a thorough Report and Recommendation and opines that the plaintiff’s complaint should be summarily dismissed without service of process pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. The Report sets forth *2 3:11-cv-02314-JFA Date Filed 12/09/11 Entry Number 12 Page 2 of 2 in detail the relevant facts and standards of law on this matter, and the court incorporates such without a recitation.

The plaintiff was advised of his right to file objections to the Report and Recommendation, which was entered on the docket on September 30, 2011. However, the plaintiff failed to file objections. In the absence of specific objections to the Report of the Magistrate Judge, this court is not required to give any explanation for adopting the recommendation. See Camby v. Davis , 718 F.2d 198, 199 (4th Cir. 1983).

After carefully reviewing the applicable laws, the record in this case, and the Report and Recommendation, this court finds the Magistrate Judge’s recommendation fairly and accurately summarizes the facts and applies the correct principles of law. The Report is incorporated herein by reference.

Accordingly, this action is dismissed without prejudice and without issuance and service of process.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

[1] The Magistrate Judge’s review is made in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Civil Rule 73.02. The Magistrate Judge makes only a recommendation to this court. The recommendation has no presumptive weight, and the responsibility to make a final determination remains with the court. Mathews v. Weber , 423 U.S. 261 (1976). The court is charged with making a de novo determination of those portions of the Report and Recommendation to which specific objection is made, and the court may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, or recommit the matter to the Magistrate Judge with instructions. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). 1
