Before the court is the Report and Recommendation of the United

Crossland’s motion to dismiss in his individual capacity be granted.
No objection has been filed and the time allotted for doing so has
expired. “In the absence of a timely objection, the district court may
review a magistrate’s report under any standard it deems appropriate.”
Summers v. Utah, 927 F.2d 1165, 1167 (10th Cir.1991). The court
agrees with the reasoning of the Magistrate Judge’s analysis and
recommendation and finds that “there is no clear error on the face of the
record.” See Rule 72(b) F.R.Cv.P., advisory committee note.
