No. CV-13-08048-PHX-GMS
Commissioner of Arizona State Prison, et

13
Defendants.

15
Pending before the Court are Plaintiff’s Civil Rights Complaint and United States
16
Magistrate Judge Mark E. Aspey’s Report and Recommendation (“R&R”). Docs. 1, 32.
17
The R&R recommends that the Court dismiss the Complaint without prejudice. Doc. 32
18
at 6. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that they had fourteen days to file
19
objections to the R&R and that failure to file timely objections could be considered a
20
waiver of the right to obtain review of the R&R. Id. at 7 (citing Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b);
21
United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003)).
22
The parties did not file objections, which relieves the Court of its obligation to
23
review the R&R. See Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149
24
(1985) (“[Section 636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is
25
not the subject of an objection.”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge must
26
determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge’s disposition that has been properly
27
objected to.”). The Court has nonetheless reviewed the R&R and finds that it is well-
28
taken. The Court will accept the R&R and dismiss the Complaint without prejudice. See

28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (stating that the district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in
whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate”); Fed. R. Civ.
P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge may accept, reject, or modify the recommended
disposition; receive further evidence; or return the matter to the magistrate judge with
instructions.”).
IT IS ORDERED:
1.
Magistrate Judge Aspey’s R&R (Doc. 32) is accepted.
2.
Plaintiff’s Civil Rights Complaint (Doc. 1) is dismissed without
prejudice.
3.
The Clerk of Court shall terminate this action and enter judgment
accordingly.
4.
The docket shall reflect that the Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(a)(3) and Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure 24(a)(3)(A), that any appeal of
this decision would not be taken in good faith.
