In the Report, the Magistrate Judge recommends that this Court dismiss the Complaint in the above-captioned case without prejudice and without issuance and service of process as to Defendant R.L.

In the absence of objections to the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, this Court is not required to give any explanation for adopting the recommendation. See Camby v. Davis, 718 F.2d 198, 199 (4th Cir. 1983).
The Court has carefully reviewed the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation and all other relevant filings in this matter. After careful consideration, IT IS ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (Doc. #10) be ACCEPTED. Accordingly, for the reasons articulated by the Magistrate Judge, IT IS ORDERED that the Complaint (Doc. #1) be dismissed in its entirety without issuance and without service of process with regard to Defendant R.L. Turner.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
