UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

FORT MYERS DIVISION

BAMIDELE AIYEKUSIBE, MISCHELE

HIGGINSON and SHANTAL BROWN-

WINN, individually and on behalf of all

others similarly situated

Plaintiffs,

v. Case No.: 2:18-cv-816-FtM-38MRM

THE HERTZ CORPORATION and

DTG OPERATIONS, INC.,

Defendants.

/

ORDER1

Before the Court is United States Magistrate Judge Mac R. McCoy’s Report and

Recommendation (“R&R”). (Doc. 122). Judge McCoy recommends denying Plaintiffs’

motion to toll the statute of limitations. Neither party objected, and the matter is ripe.

A district judge “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or

recommendations made by the magistrate judge.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also

Williams v. Wainwright, 681 F.2d 732, 732 (11th Cir. 1982). Without a specific objection,

the judge need not review factual findings de novo. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also

Garvey v. Vaughn, 993 F.2d 776, 779 n.9 (11th Cir. 1993). But the district court reviews

legal conclusions de novo, even without an objection. Cooper-Houston v. S. Ry., 37 F.3d

603, 604 (11th Cir. 1994).

After a careful, complete, and independent examination of the file, the Court

accepts and adopts Judge McCoy’s R&R in full.

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

1. The Report and Recommendation (Doc. 122) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED.

2. Plaintiffs’ Renewed Motion for Equitable Tolling of Statute of Limitations (Doc.

113) is DENIED.

DONE and ORDERED in Fort Myers, Florida this 6th day of March, 2020.
