Amatucci v. Young et al

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
Josephine Amatucci
v. 	Case No. 18-cv-1227-SM-AJ
Richard M. Young, Jr. et al.
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
On April 12, 2024, the court ordered plaintiff Josephine
Amatucci to show cause why this case should not be dismissed
based on her repeated failure to comply with her discovery
obligations and her steadfast refusal to accept the fact that
she has any such obligations at all. See generally Show Cause
Order (Doc. No. 283).1
Although Mrs. Amatucci filed a response (Doc. No. 286) to
the court’s order, that response failed to provide initial
disclosures, as required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(1)(a), respond
to defendants’ request for production of documents, or provide a
valid basis for not complying, as the show cause order required.
Instead, Mrs. Amatucci did little more than repeat her oft-
rejected argument that she is entitled to judgment as a matter
of law, based solely on her version of events, and without
1 The court detailed Mrs. Amatucci’s various failures and
refusals to comply in its Show Cause Order and will not repeat
those details here.

allowing the defendants to defend against her claims.
Accordingly, the undersigned Magistrate Judge recommends that
the district judge grant defendants’ motions to dismiss (Doc.
Nos. 255 and 256), dismiss this case with prejudice and deny all
pending motions as moot.
Any objections to this Report and Recommendation must be
filed within fourteen days of receipt of this notice. Fed. R.
Civ. P. 72(b)(2). The fourteen-day period may be extended upon
motion. Failure to file any objection within the specified time
waives the right to appeal the district court’s Order. See
Santos-Santos v. Torres-Centeno, 842 F.3d 163, 168 (1st Cir.
2016). Only those issues raised in the written objections to
this Report and Recommendation “‘are subject to review in the
district court,’” and any issues “‘not preserved by such
objection are precluded on appeal.’” Id. (citations omitted).
