Jeffrey Mador v. Armscor Precision International, also known as API, et al.

Summary

The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky adopted a magistrate judge’s recommendation denying Plaintiff Jeffrey Mador’s motion for sanctions and request to extend the discovery deadline. The court noted that neither party objected to the recommendation and concluded that the defendants had not warranted sanctions or an extension.

Holdings

1. When neither party objects to a magistrate judge's factual or legal conclusions, the district court is not required to conduct de novo or other review of those conclusions, and the failure to object generally forfeits the right to additional review.
2. The motion for sanctions and extension of the discovery deadline is denied.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the district court should adopt the magistrate judge's recommendation when neither party filed an objection.
2. Whether plaintiff's motion for sanctions and extension of the discovery deadline should be denied.
