The Court has reviewed the Memorandum and Recommendation (Instrument No. 19) signed by Magistrate Judge Mary Milloy on June 17, 2016, regarding Instrument 12. Plaintiff timely filed objections. The Court has reviewed the Memorandum and Recommendation and objections and made a de novo review of the Magistrate Judge's recommended dispositions to which objections were raised, Rule 72(b), Fed.

Accordingly, the Court finds that Defendant's motion to dismiss Plaintiff's claims for discrimination, wrongful termination, fraudulent misrepresentation, slander, and tortious interference with a contract are GRANTED, and that Defendant's motion to dismiss Plaintiff's claim for retaliation is DENIED. As to the fraud claim only, Plaintiff is GRANTED leave to file an amended complaint and may re-plead the fraud claim within ten days from the date of this Order.
