ORDER1

This matter comes before the Court on United States Magistrate Judge Carol Mirando's Report and Recommendation (Doc. #67) filed on September 6, 2016. Judge Mirando recommends that Plaintiffs, Bernice Battle and Willie Battle's Opposed Third Motion for Leave to Add Additional Counts to the Second Amended Complaint (Doc. #60) be denied. No objections were filed,2 and the time to do so has now expired.

A district judge "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). If no specific objections to findings of fact are filed, the district judge is not required to conduct a de novo review of those findings. See Garvey v. Vaughn, 993 F.2d 776, 779 n.9 (11th Cir. 1993). However, the district judge must review 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, adopts, and approves the Report and Recommendation.

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

1. United States Magistrate Judge Carol Mirando's Report and Recommendation (Doc. #Doc. #67) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED. 2. Plaintiffs' Opposed Third Amended Motion for Leave to Add Additional Counts to the Second Amended Complaint is DENIED. 3. Plaintiffs' Third Amended Complaint is accepted as filed.
