ORDER

15

On April 28, 2016, Plaintiff Scott Warren Boe filed a Motion for Leave to File

16

Supplemental Pleading (Doc. 38), in which he requests permission to file a lodged second

17

amended complaint. On July 6, 2016, the Honorable Deborah M. Fine, United States

18

Magistrate Judge, issued a Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) (Doc. 45),

19

recommending that the Court deny the motion. Judge Fine advised Plaintiff that he had

20

fourteen (14) days to file objections to the R&R and that failure to file timely objections

21

could be considered a waiver of the right to obtain review of the R&R. See also 28

22

U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 6, 72; United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114,

23

1121 (9th Cir. 2003).

24

No timely objection has been filed, which relieves the Court of its obligation to

25

review the R&R. See Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149

26

(1985) (“[Section 636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is

27

not the subject of an objection.”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge must

28

determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge’s disposition that has been properly

1

objected to.”). The Court has nonetheless reviewed the R&R and finds that it is well-

2

taken. The Court will adopt the R&R and deny the motion. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)

3

(stating that the district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the

4

findings or recommendations made by the magistrate”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The

5

district judge may accept, reject, or modify the recommended disposition; receive further

6

evidence; or return the matter to the magistrate judge with instructions.”). Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 45)
is accepted and adopted by the Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Motion for Leave to File Supplemental
Pleading (Doc. 38) is denied.
Dated this 26th day of July, 2016.
