VICTORIA A. ROBERTS, District Judge.
On June 26, 2013, Magistrate Judge Komives filed a Report and Recommendation (Doc. #53), recommending that the Court grant Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. #49). The Court considered objections filed by the Plaintiff (Doc. #54) .
Under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), a Magistrate Judge's recommendations regarding a Defendant's motion for summary judgment are dispositive and are reviewed de novo. The referring judge may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations to which objection is made. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b).
Summary judgment is appropriate if the "pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law." Copeland v. Machulis, 57 F.3d 476, 478 (6th Cir. 1995). The moving party bears the initial burden to show that there is no genuine issue of material fact. Snyder v. AG Trucking Co., 57 F.3d 484, 488 (6th Cir. 1995). Once the moving party meets this burden of production, the non-moving party must come forward with significant probative evidence showing that a genuine issue exists for trial. Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 256, (1986).
A careful review of the underlying record, the recitation of facts and law by the Magistrate Judge in his report and recommendation, as well as Plaintiff's objections, leads this Court to conclude there are no genuine issues of fact for trial, and that the Magistrate Judge correctly found in favor of Defendant.
