ORDER

Before the Court is the report and recommendation from United States Magistrate Judge Mark Lane concerning Defendant's Motion to Compel Arbitration to Dismiss, (Dkt. 11). (R. & R., Dkt. 19). Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Rule 1(d) of Appendix C of the Local Rules of the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, Judge Lane issued his report and recommendation on February 20, 2024. (Id.). As of the date of this order, no party has filed objections to the report and recommendation.

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), a party may serve and file specific, written objections to a magistrate judge's proposed findings and recommendations within fourteen days after being served with a copy of the report and recommendation and, in doing so, secure de novo review by the district court. When no objections are timely filed, a district court can review the magistrate's report and recommendation for clear error. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72 advisory committee's note ("When no timely objection is filed, the [district] court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation.").

Because no party has filed timely objections, the Court reviews the report and recommendation for clear error. Having done so and finding no clear error, the Court accepts and adopts the report and recommendation as its own order.

Accordingly, the Court ORDERS that the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge, (Dkt. 19), is ADOPTED.

Defendant's Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Dismiss, (Dkt. 11), is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. Defendant's motion is GRANTED as to compelling arbitration and DENIED as to dismissing the case.

IT IS ORDERED that this case is STAYED pending arbitration.

IT IS FINALLY ORDERED that the parties shall file a joint status reports detailing the status of the arbitration proceedings on June 5, 2024, and every 90 days thereafter.

SIGNED on March 7, 2024.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
