White et al v. The GSH Group et al

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
RENEE D. WHITE,
Plaintiff,
v.
THE GSH GROUP, RPM
LIVING, FRIEDMAN REAL
ESTATE,
Defendants.
2:24-cv-11752-TGB-CI
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT
AND RECOMMENDATION
(ECF No. 28)
This matter is before the Court on Magistrate Curtis Ivy, Jr.’s
August 1, 2025 Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 28) that the case
be dismissed for Plaintiff’s failure to prosecute.
The law provides that either party may serve and file written
objections “[w]ithin fourteen days after being served with a copy” of the
report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The district court will
make a “de novo determination of those portions of the report … to which
objection is made.” Id. Where, as here, neither party has specifically
objected to the report, the district court is not obligated to independently
review the record. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149–52 (1985).
The Court has reviewed Judge Ivy’s Report and Recommendation
and finds that it is well-reasoned and supported by the applicable law.
The Court notes that Plaintiff requested, and was granted, pro se e-filer
status to receive notice of the filings of others and the Court via the

Court’s electronic filing system in July 2024. ECF Nos. 4 & 5. But since
filing a motion to strike affirmative defenses in August 2024 (ECF No.
11), Plaintiff has been silent: she failed (1) to respond to the Court’s order
to provide a joint discovery plan (ECF No. 14), (2) to file a response to
Defendants’ motion to dismiss (ECF No. 19), (3) to appear at the June
2025 status conference, (4) to respond to the Court’s Order to Show Cause
why the case should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute on or before
July 8, 2025 (ECF No. 25), and (5) to otherwise object to the Report and
Recommendation to dismiss the case (ECF No. 28).
The 	Court 	will, 	therefore, 	accept 	Judge 	Ivy’s 	Report 	and
Recommendation of August 1, 2025, as its findings of fact and conclusions
of law. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Judge Ivy’s Report and
Recommendation of August 1, 2025 (ECF No. 28), is ACCEPTED and
ADOPTED. It is FURTHER ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED
WITH PREJUDICE.
SO ORDERED.
