On August 29, 2018, United States Magistrate Judge Theresa Carroll Buchanan entered a Report and Recommendation ("Report"), finding that plaintiff was entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and costs pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 2617(a)(3), and recommending awarding plaintiff $395,375.23 in fees and costs.

Upon consideration of the Magistrate Judge's thorough and well-reasoned Report, to which no objections have been filed, and the record, and having found no clear error,1

The Court ADOPTS, as its own, the findings of fact and recommendations of the United States Magistrate Judge, as set forth in the Report (Doc. 194).

Accordingly,

It is hereby ORDERED that plaintiff's motion for attorneys' fees and costs (Doc. 144) is GRANTED.

It is further ORDERED that the Clerk of Court is directed to enter an amended final judgment in favor of plaintiff and against defendant in the amount of $842,835.79 — representing the jury and statutory award of $447,460.56 to plaintiff and the award of attorneys' fees and costs in the amount of $395,375.23.

The Clerk is further directed to provide a copy of this Order to all counsel of record.
