Velasco issued a Report and 15 Recommendation (Doc. 22) in which he recommended that the Motion to Dismiss (Doc. 4) 16 be denied as moot, the Motion to Dismiss Amended Complaint (Doc. 13) be granted with 17 leave to amend, the Motions to Remand (Docs. 5 and 12) be denied, and the Motion to 18 Amend or Correct the Amended Complaint (Doc. 19) be denied. The magistrate judge 19 advised the parties that written objections to the Report and Recommendation were to be 20 filed within fourteen days of service of a copy of the Report and Recommendation pursuant 21 to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). No objection has been filed. 22 This Court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or 23 recommendations made by the magistrate." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Further, under 28 U.S.C. 24 § 636(b)(1), if a party makes a timely objection to a magistrate judge's recommendation, then 25 this Court is required to "make a de novo determination of those portions of the [report and 26 recommendation] to which objection is made." The statute does not "require [] some lesser 27 review by [this Court] when no objections are filed." Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-50 28 (1985). Rather, this Court is not required to conduct "any review at all . . . of any issue that 1 is not the subject of an objection." Id. at 149. Nonetheless, the Court has reviewed and 2 considered the Report and Recommendation and finds it well-supported and well-taken. 3 4 Amended Complaint 5 The Court, as discussed by the magistrate judge, has provided the reasons for the 6 dismissal so Plaintiff can make an intelligent decision whether to file a Third Amended 7 Complaint.
