Plaintiff is a prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights
23
action brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States
24
Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.
25
On April 27, 2017, the Magistrate Judge assigned to the case screened Plaintiff’s
26
first amended complaint and found it stated cognizable claims against Defendants
27
Carmona and Alba for excessive force in violation of the Eighth Amendment and assault
28
1
and battery in violation of state law, against Carmona, Bonffil, and Archuleta for
2
retaliation in violation of the First Amendment, and against Bonffil and Archuleta in
3
violation of the Bane Act. (ECF No. 17.) The Magistrate Judge found Plaintiff stated no
4
other cognizable claims, and that further leave to amend would be futile. Accordingly, the
5
Magistrate Judge authorized service of Plaintiff’s complaint on Defendants Carmona,
6
Alba, Bonffil, and Archuleta. He recommended dismissing Plaintiff’s remaining claims
7
and Defendants Campa and Cribbs, and granted Plaintiff fourteen days to file his
8
objections. The fourteen day deadline passed and no objections were filed.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 304,
10
the Court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the
11
entire file, the Court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the
12
record and by proper analysis.
