ORDER

TIMOTHY J. CORRIGAN, District Judge.

This case is before the Court on the Defendant Klausner Lumber One, LLC's Motion to Dismiss Qui Tam Complaint (Doc. 14). On December 2, 2016, the assigned United States Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation (Doc. 26) recommending that the motion be granted in part and denied in part; the complaint be dismissed without prejudice; and Plaintiff be given twenty days from the Court's order on the Report and Recommendation to file an amended complaint in accordance herewith, and Defendant be given fourteen days from such filing to respond.

On December 16, 2016, Defendant filed a Partial Objection to Magistrate's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 27), in which it requests that the Court explicitly state that the partial denial of Defendant's motion to dismiss is without prejudice and may be renewed in response to any amended complaint that Plaintiff may file. Defendant objects to this extent only and fully concurs in the R&R's result. (Id. at 2). Plaintiff did not file any objections.
