MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

This matter comes before the Court on the Report and Recommendation ("Report") (Doc. 20) of Magistrate Judge Donald G. Wilkerson recommending that the Court grant defendant Kurtis T. Hunter's motion for summary judgment (Doc. 14) and dismiss plaintiff Aaron Salters' claims against him and the unknown party mailroom clerk for failure to exhaust administrative remedies.

The Court may accept, reject or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations of the magistrate judge in a report and recommendation. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3). The Court must review de novo the portions of the report to which objections are made. Id. "If no objection or only partial objection is made, the district court judge reviews those unobjected portions for clear error." Johnson v. Zema Sys. Corp., 170 F.3d 734, 739 (7th Cir. 1999).

The Court has received no objection to the Report. The Court has reviewed the entire file and finds that the Report is not clearly erroneous. Accordingly, the Court hereby:

ADOPTS the Report in its entirety (Doc. 20); GRANTS Hunter's motion for summary judgment (Doc. 14); DISMISSES Salters' claims in this case without prejudice for failure to exhaust administrative remedies; and DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to enter judgment accordingly.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
