ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S
MEMORANDUM AND RECOMMENDATION
On October 16, 2025, an Initial Conference was set before Magistrate Judge Peter
Bray in this matter. (Dkt. 12). Judge Bray ordered the Plaintiffs to serve the Defendants by
November 17, 2025. (Dkt. 13). Plaintiffs failed to do so, and Judge Bray filed a
Memorandum and Recommendation on December 5, 2025, recommending that Plaintiffs’
complaint be dismissed for failure to serve the defendants. (Dkt. 15).
No 	objections 	have 	been 	filed 	to 	the 	Memorandum 	and 	Recommendation.
Accordingly, the Court reviews the Memorandum and Recommendation for plain error on
the face of the record. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also F ED. R. C IV. P. 72(b)(3).
Based on the pleadings, the record, and the applicable law, the Court finds that there
is no plain error apparent from the face of the record. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED
and ADJUDGED that:
(1) 	Judge Bray’s Memorandum and Recommendation (Dkt. 15) is APPROVED
and ADOPTED in its entirety as the holding of the Court; and
(2) 	this matter is DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
