PRACTICE CLINIC
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION AND DISMISSING CASE FOR FAILURE TO PROSECUTE BEFORE THE COURT
is the [6] Report and Recommendation proposing that Plaintiff Ikechukwu Hyginus Okorie’s Complaint based on breach of contract and other state law claims be dismissed without prejudice for to serve process and failure to prosecute. Okorie did not file an objection [1] to the Report and Recommendation, and the deadline for doing so has expired.
Where no party has objected to the Magistrate Judge’s report and recommendation, the Court need not conduct a de novo review of it. See 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 and recommendations to which objection is made.”). In such cases, the Court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record. Douglass v. United Serv.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
[1] While Okorie filed a document [7] titled “Statement of Position and Notice of Retaliation,” it does not contain any objections to the [6] Report and Recommendation. Instead, its focus appears to be unrelated proceedings before the Mississippi State Board of Medical Licensure.
