Pending before the Court is a Report and Recommendation [ECF No. 350] (the “Report”)
recommending that this Court DENY Defendant, MOOD MEDIA LLC’s (“Mood Media”) Motion
for Summary Judgment (“Motion”) [ECF No. 304]. On September 25, 2025, Mood Media raised
objections [ECF No. 355] to the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation; therefore, this
Court reviews the objected-to portions of the Report de novo. See United States v. Schultz, 565 F.3d
1353, 1360 (11th Cir. 2009); see also 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). Having thus
considered the Report and Mood Media’s filed objections and being otherwise advised as to the
premises, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that,
1. The Report [ECF No. 350] is AFFIRMED.
