ORDER
16
Pending before the Court is Magistrate Judge Fine’s Report and Recommendation
17
(Doc. 16) regarding the plaintiff’s Second Amended Complaint (Doc. 14, construed as a
18
motion to file a second amended complaint.) Having reviewed de novo the Report and
19
Recommendation in light of Plaintiff’s Objections to Report and Recommendation Issued
20
by Magistrate Judge (Doc. 19), the Court finds that the plaintiff’s objections should be
21
overruled because the Magistrate Judge correctly determined that the plaintiff should be
22
allowed to file his Second Amended Complaint to the extent determined by the Magistrate
23
Judge. Therefore,
24

IT IS ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 16)
