Civ. No. 25-2474 (JWB/SGE)
ORDER ACCEPTING
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
OF MAGISTRATE JUDGE
United States Magistrate Judge Shannon G. Elkins issued a Report and
Recommendation (“R&R”) on January 26, 2026. (Doc. No. 38.) Plaintiff has filed
objections to the R&R. (Doc. No. 44.)
The portions of the R&R to which Plaintiff objects are reviewed de novo.
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); D. Minn. LR 72.2(b)(3). Any aspect of an R&R to which no
specific objection is made is reviewed for clear error. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Grinder
v. Gammon, 73 F.3d 793, 795 (8th Cir. 1996).
Plaintiff’s objections to the January 26, 2026 R&R have been reviewed. The
objections do not identify any error of law or fact that warrant rejecting the
recommendations in the R&R. And, after carefully reviewing all other portions of the
R&R not specifically objected to, it is neither clearly erroneous nor contrary to law.
Based on the R&R of the Magistrate Judge, and on all the files, records, and
