CASE NO. 22-cv-23189-ALTMAN/Reid

MCM ENTERTAINMENT, INC, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

DIAZ WORLD TRADE GROUP, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

_________________________________________/

ORDER

On November 16, 2022, the Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Entry of a Temporary Restraining 

Order, Preliminary Injunction, and Order Restraining Transfer of Assets and an Appointment of a 

Receiver [ECF No. 19] (the “Motion”). The Defendants responded to the Motion on December 2, 

2022. See the Defendants’ Response to the Plaintiffs’ Motion [ECF No. 22]. We referred the Motion 

to Magistrate Judge Lisette M. Reid, see Order Referring Motion to Magistrate Judge [ECF No. 29], 

who recommended that we deny the Motion without prejudice because the parties “agreed at the 

hearing to this resolution of the issue.” See Report and Recommendation [ECF No. 48] (the “R&R”) 

at 4. Magistrate Judge Reid also warned the parties that:

Objections to this Report may be filed with the district judge within five days of receipt 

of a copy of the Report. The objection period has been shortened because both partis 

agreed at the hearing to this resolution of the issue. Failure to timely file objections

will bar a de novo determination by the district judge of anything in this Report and shall 

constitute a waiver of a party’s ‘right to challenge on appeal the District Court’s order 

based on unobjected-to- factual and legal conclusions.’ 11th Cir. R. 3-1; see also Harrigan 

v. Metro-Dade Police Dep’t Station #4, 977 F.3d 1185, 1191–92 (11th Cir. 2020); 28 U.S.C. 

§ 636(b)(1)(C).

Ibid. 

Both parties have since filed notices, informing us that they don’t object to the R&R. See 

Plaintiffs’ Notice of No Objection to Magistrate’s Report and Recommendation [ECF No. 57]; see also

Defendants’ Notice to the Court of No Objection to Magistrate Judge Lisette M. Reid’s Report and 

Recommendation [ECF No. 56].

When a magistrate judge’s “disposition” has been properly objected to, district courts must 

review that disposition de novo. FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b)(3). But, when no party has objected, “the court 

need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the 

recommendation.” FED. R. CIV. P. 72 advisory committee’s notes (citation omitted). Although Rule 

72 itself is silent on the standard of review, the Supreme Court has acknowledged that Congress’ intent 

was to require de novo review only where objections have been properly filed—and not, as here, when 

neither party objects. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 150 (1985) (“It does not appear that Congress 

intended to require district court review of a magistrate [judge]’s factual or legal conclusions, under a 

de novo or any other standard, when neither party objects to those findings.”).

We’ve reviewed the R&R, the record, and the applicable law and find no clear error on the 

face of the R&R. Accordingly, we hereby ORDER AND ADJUDGE as follows: 

1. The R&R [ECF No. 48] is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED.

2. The Plaintiff’s Motion [ECF No. 19] is DENIED without prejudice.

DONE AND ORDERED in the Southern District of Florida on April 11, 2023.
