Any party opposing the appeal must, within 14 days after service of the appeal, file a memorandum of law in opposition.

(B) Review of Dispositive Motions.

Any party may object to a magistrate judge's report and recommendation by filing an objection in accordance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) within 14 days after service thereof. Such objection must specifically identify the portions of the report and recommendation to which objection is made and the basis for the objection and must be accompanied by a memorandum of law in support of the objection. Any party who opposes the objection must file a memorandum of law in opposition within 14 days after service of the objection.
