is required to “make a de novo determination of those portions of the [magistrate
judge’s] report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which
objection [has been] made.” After conducting this de novo review, the court may
“accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations
made by the magistrate judge.” Id.; see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3).
The court has carefully considered the objections; the memorandum and
recommendation; the pleadings; and the record. The court accepts Judge Edison’s
memorandum and recommendation and adopts it as the opinion of the court. It is
therefore ordered that:
(1) 	Judge Edison’s memorandum and recommendation (Dkt. 30) is
approved and adopted in its entirety as the holding of the court;
(2) 	Defendants’ motion to dismiss (Dkt. 21) is denied as to SLS and
granted as to ModCorr; and
(3) 	ModCorr is dismissed from this litigation.
SIGNED on Galveston Island this 9th day of April 2026.
