OPINION AND ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S NOVEMBER 13, 2014 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [54] AND GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [47]

NANCY G. EDMUNDS, District Judge.

Before the Court is the Magistrate Judge's November 13, 2014 report and recommendation [54] on Defendant's motion for summary judgment [47]. Defendant seeks summary judgment on Plaintiff's claim of gender discrimination in violation of Title VII following her termination from Defendant. This is Plaintiff's only remaining claim in this case. The Magistrate Judge recommended granting Defendant's motion for summary judgment and dismissing Plaintiff's complaint with prejudice. Neither party has filed objections. "[T]he failure to object to the magistrate judge's report[] releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter." Sloan v. Sumner, No. 13-12163, 2014 WL 3870627, at *1 (E.D. Mich. Aug. 7, 2014) (citation omitted). The Court nevertheless agrees with the Magistrate Judge's recommendation. The Court therefore ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge's report and recommendation. Defendant's motion for summary judgment is GRANTED, and Plaintiff's complaint is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.

SO ORDERED.
