ORDER1
SHERI POLSTER CHAPPELL, District Judge.
Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Mac R. McCoy's Report and Recommendation. (Doc. 37). Judge McCoy recommends the denial of Plaintiff Patricia Kennedy's Motion for Entry of Judgment After Default and Verified Application for Attorney Fees, Costs, Expert Fees and Litigation Expenses. (Doc. 33). Neither party filed a timely objection to the Report and Recommendation, so the matter is ripe for review.
After conducting a careful and complete review of the findings and recommendations, a district judge may accept, reject, or modify the magistrate judge's report and recommendation. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also Williams v. Wainwright, 681 F.2d 732 (11th Cir. 1982). In the absence of specific objections, there is no requirement that a district judge review factual findings de novo, Garvey v. Vaughn, 993 F.2d 776, 779 n.9 (11th Cir. 1993), and the court may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings and recommendations, 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). The district judge reviews legal conclusions de novo, even in the absence of an objection. See Cooper-Houston v. Southern Ry. Co., 37 F.3d 603, 604 (11th Cir. 1994).
After careful consideration and an independent review of the file, the Court accepts and adopts the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 37) in full.
Accordingly, it is now
ORDERED:
1. The Report and Recommendation (Doc. 37) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED and incorporated into this Order.
2. Plaintiff Patricia Kennedy's Motion for Entry of Judgment After Default and Verified Application for Attorney Fees, Costs, Expert Fees and Litigation Expenses (Doc. 33) is DENIED without prejudice.
3. Kennedy is DIRECTED to inform the Court on or before February 11, 2019 as to how she would like to proceed. The failure to do so will result in the Court dismissing this case without further notice.
DONE and ORDERED.
