EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
MARTELL JONES,
Plaintiff, 	Case No. 2:23-cv-12509

United States District Judge
HEINDNEN, et al.,
Honorable Curtis Ivy, Jr.
Defendants. 	United States Magistrate Judge
___________________________________/
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF No. 65),
AND DISMISSING DEFENDANTS DOE AND ROSE
On August 7, 2025, Magistrate Judge Curtis Ivy, Jr. issued a report, ECF No.
65, recommending that this Court dismiss Defendants John Doe and Sergeant Rose
without prejudice under Civil Rule 4(m). Judge Ivy provided 14 days to object, but
the Parties did not do so. They have therefore forfeited their right to appeal Judge
Ivy’s findings. See Berkshire v. Dahl, 928 F.3d 520, 530–31 (6th Cir. 2019) (citing
Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985)). Moreover, having reviewed the report
and recommendation, this Court finds no clear error, and so it will be adopted in full.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation, ECF No.
65, is ADOPTED.
Further, it is ORDERED that Defendants John Doe and Sergeant Rose are
DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
