ORDER
JAMES T. MOODY, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on the "Plea Agreement," filed by the Government as to Defendant, Miranda Brakely, on January 19, 2016, in the above-captioned case (DE #90).
This matter was referred to Magistrate Judge Paul R. Cherry for report and recommendation (DE #93). The Magistrate Judge held a change of plea hearing on January 20, 2016. The Magistrate Judge found that Miranda Brakely knowingly and voluntarily entered into a plea agreement as to Count I of the Indictment, and recommended that the district court accept the plea. (DE ## 98, 103.)
More than 14 days have passed and Defendant has not filed any objection to the Report and Recommendation. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2); see also Willis v. Caterpillar, Inc., 199 F.3d 902, 904 (7th Cir. 1999) (explaining that the failure to file a timely objection will result in the waiver of the right to challenge a report and recommendation). Therefore, Defendant has waived her right to challenge the report and recommendation.
Accordingly, the Court now ADOPTS those findings and recommendations (DE #103), ACCEPTS the guilty plea of the Defendant, and FINDS the Defendant guilty of Count I of the Indictment.
Sentencing will be set by the Court under separate cover.
