OPINION AND ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [#65] TO GRANT DEFENDANT BORGERDING'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [#46]

This matter is before the Court on a Report and Recommendation (Doc # 65) filed by Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti to grant Defendant Dr. William Borgerding D.O.'s ("Borgerding") Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc # 46). No objections were filed to the Report and Recommendation. The Court ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation and GRANTS Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment.

The background facts of this matter are adequately set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, and the Court adopts them here.

The standard of review by the district court when examining a Report and Recommendation is set forth in 28 U.S.C. § 636. This Court "shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or the specified proposed findings or recommendations to which an objection is made." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). The court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge." Id. In order to preserve the right to appeal the magistrate judge's recommendation, a party must file objections to the Report and Recommendation within fourteen (14) days of service of the Report and Recommendation. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2). Failure to file specific objections constitutes a waiver of any further right of appeal. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 155 (1985); Howard v. Sec'y of Health & Human Servs., 932 F.2d 505, 508-09 (6th Cir. 1991); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947, 949-50 (6th Cir. 1981).

After review of the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, the Court finds that his findings and conclusions are correct. The Court agrees with the Magistrate Judge that Plaintiff failed to exhaust his administrative remedies against Borgerding, and that the grievances filed by Plaintiff did not give Borgerding notice of the claims against him. The Court further agrees with the Magistrate Judge that Plaintiff's claims against Borgerding are not saved under the continuing violation theory.

Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti's Report and Recommendation (Doc # 65) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED as this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant William Borgerding's Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc # 46) is GRANTED.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant William Borgerding is DISMISSED from this action.
