ORDER

ROY B. DALTON, Jr., District Judge.

This cause is before the Court on the following:

1. Motion for Entry of Default Judgment (Doc. 7), filed October 8, 2014; 2. Magistrate Judge Karla R. Spaulding's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 8), filed December 29, 2014; and 3. Response to Court's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 9), filed January 6, 2014.

In a well-reasoned Report and Recommendation ("R&R"), Magistrate Judge Karla R. Spaulding recommends granting the Plaintiff's Motion for Entry of Default Judgment. (See Doc. 8, p. 9 (citing Doc. 7).) The objection period has expired, and Defendant did not object to the R&R. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2); 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). Upon fairness review, the Court finds that the R&R is due to be adopted and confirmed and made a part of this Order.

Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:

1. Magistrate Judge Karla R. Spaulding's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 8) is ADOPTED AND CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order. 2. Plaintiff's Motion for Entry of Default Judgment (Doc. 7) is GRANTED. a. The Court FINDS that Defendant is liable to the Plaintiff in the amount of $9,625.00 plus accrued prejudgment interest. b. The Court AWARDS Plaintiff attorney's fees in the amount of $940.00 and costs in the amount of $35.00. 3. On or before January 29, 2015, Plaintiff is DIRECTED to file a proposed judgment with prejudgment interest calculated as of January 30, 2015. 4. In conjunction with the proposed judgment, on or before January 29, 2015, Plaintiff is DIRECTED to separately file a supplemental brief explaining the rates, dates, and sources used to calculate the proposed January 30, 2015 prejudgment interest amount.

DONE AND ORDERED.
