After a hearing on the Motion on January 10, 2017, the Magistrate Judge took the motion under advisement. The Report and Recommendation [31] was issued on January 23, 2017. Neither party filed objections to the Report & Recommendation. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2).

The Court having reviewed the record, the Report and Recommendation [31] is hereby ADOPTED and entered as the findings and conclusions of the Court. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that default judgment be entered in the amount of $41,000;

IT IS FURTHERED ORDERED that if Plaintiff wishes to recover for costs and fees, she will submit an attorney fee/cost petition, properly supported by affidavits, billing records, and any other appropriate documentation, within 14 days of the entry of this Order.
