- Gregory Woods
- June 4, 2021
Background
Renee Young and Roxane Tierney sued L'oreal USA, Inc. individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated. The opinion does not describe the claims, the facts underlying them, or the parties’ substantive arguments.
Report and Recommendation
On May 20, 2021, Magistrate Judge Parker issued a Report and Recommendation recommending that the plaintiffs’ claims be dismissed with prejudice. Objections were due June 3, 2021, and the district court received none.
Ruling
Judge Gregory H. Woods reviewed the Report and Recommendation for clear error, meaning an obvious mistake apparent from the record. The court found no clear error and accepted and adopted the Report and Recommendation in its entirety. The court granted the defendant’s motion to dismiss, directed the clerk to terminate that motion, and closed the case. Because the order adopts the recommendation, the opinion states that the recommended dismissal was with prejudice, but it does not explain the legal basis for dismissal.
