JUDGMENT ENTRY. {¶ 1} This case was tried to a magistrate of the court. On July 28, 2003, the magistrate issued a decision recommending judgment for plaintiff in an amount to be determined at a subsequent proceeding.

{¶ 2} Civ.R. 53 states: “Within 14 days of the filing of a magistrate’s decision, a party may file written objections to the magistrate’s decision.” No objections have been filed.

{¶ 3} Upon review of the record and the magistrate’s decision, the court determines that there is no error of law or other defect on the face of the magistrate’s decision. Therefore, the court adopts the magistrate’s decision and recommendation as its own including the findings of fact and conclusions of law contained therein. This case is ready to be set for trial in the normal course on the issue of damages.
