ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF

UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

The above entitled and numbered civil action was referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636. The Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (“R&R”) has been presented for consideration (Doc. No. 665). The Magistrate Judge recommends granting Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.’s (“AMD”) Motion to Dismiss Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.’s (“Volkswagen”) Third-Party Claim Against AMD (Doc. No. 569). Volkswagen was given 14 days from the date of the R&R to amend its complaint, and did so by filing a filing a First Amended Third-Party Complaint Against AMD (Doc. No. 676) on July 30, 2013. No objections have been filed. Having carefully considered the parties’ arguments, the Court is of the opinion that the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge2 are correct. Therefore, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge as the findings of this Court.

Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that AMD’s original Motion to Dismiss be GRANTED.

So ORDERED and SIGNED this 9th day of September, 2013.
