O R D E R

Before the court is a report and recommendation of Magistrate Judge

Mehalchick (Doc. 21) in which she recommends that the court close this case for

failure to file an amended complaint.

In considering whether to adopt a report and recommendation when no

objections have been filed, the court should, as a matter of good practice, “satisfy

itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the

recommendation.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b), advisory committee notes; see also Univac

Dental Co. v. Dentsply Intern., Inc., 702 F. Supp. 2d 465, 469 (M.D. Pa. 2010)

(explaining that judges should review dispositive legal issues raised by the report for

clear error). Following an independent review of the record, the court is satisfied

that the report and recommendation contains no clear error and will therefore adopt

the recommendation.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AS FOLLOWS:

1) The report and recommendation is ADOPTED;

2) The Clerk of Court is directed to close this case.
