PAUL W. EARP

       Plaintiff

       v.

KENT STATE UNIVERSITY

       Defendant

            Case No. 2009-04891

Judge Clark B. Weaver Sr.
Magistrate Lewis F. Pettigrew

JUDGMENT ENTRY




        {¶ 1} On November 5, 2010, the magistrate issued a decision recommending
judgment for defendant.
        {¶ 2} Civ.R. 53(D)(3)(b)(i) states, in part: “A party may file written objections to
a magistrate’s decision within fourteen days of the filing of the decision, whether or not
the court has adopted the decision during that fourteen-day period as permitted by
Civ.R. 53(D)(4)(e)(i).” No objections were filed.
        {¶ 3} The court determines that there is no error of law or other defect evident
on the face of the magistrate’s decision. Therefore, the court adopts the magistrate’s
decision and recommendation as its own, including findings of fact and conclusions of
law contained therein. Judgment is rendered in favor of defendant. Court costs are
assessed against plaintiff. The clerk shall serve upon all parties notice of this judgment
and its date of entry upon the journal.
