Plaintiff Efren Danielle Bullard is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a
19
United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.
20
On April 20, 2018, Plaintiff filed a motion requesting a court order to allow Plaintiff monthly
21
access to the law library. (ECF No. 36.) On August 17, 2018, the assigned Magistrate Judge
22
construed Plaintiff’s motion as seeking injunctive relief directing action by a non-party and
23
recommended that it be denied because the Court lacks personal jurisdiction over officials at Kern
24
Valley State Prison. (ECF No. 42.) The findings and recommendations was served on the parties
25
and contained notice that any objections to the findings and recommendations were to be filed
26
within fourteen (14) days. Over fourteen days have passed, and no objections were filed.
27
In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), this Court has conducted a
28

de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the Court finds the

findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s motion for an order directing Kern
4
Valley State Prison to provide plaintiff with access to the law library (ECF No. 36) be DENIED for
5
lack of jurisdiction.
