Background
Assure Global, LLC, doing business as WeShield, moved for default judgment against Aaron Anderson and Axxeum, LLC. On January 16, 2025, the court granted the motion as to liability but denied it as to damages. The court referred the case to Magistrate Judge Sarah L. Cave for an inquest, or further proceeding, on damages.
The opinion states that Judge Cave issued a report and recommendation on July 28, 2024. That report recommended awarding Assure no damages but awarding $1,108.10 in costs. The dates stated in the opinion appear out of chronological order because the report date precedes the court's January 16, 2025 referral.
Review of the Recommendation
The parties had fourteen days to object to the report and recommendation, but no objections were filed. Without objections, the district court reviewed the recommendation for clear error, meaning an obvious mistake in the findings or reasoning. The court found no clear error.
Ruling
The court adopted the report and recommendation in its entirety and awarded Assure $1,108.10 in costs. The Clerk of Court was directed to enter judgment in Assure's favor for that amount and close the case.
