Plaintiff Doris Jean Childress (“plaintiff”), proceeding pro se, initiated this action in the

20

Merced County Superior Court on December 12, 2018. (Doc. No. 1.) On January 18, 2019, the

21

matter was removed to this federal court by defendants National Railroad Passenger Corporation

22

aka Amtrak erroneously sued as Amtrak Corp. (“Amtrak”) and Cassandra Taylor. (Id.)

23

On October 19, 2020, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations

24

recommending that this action be dismissed with prejudice due to plaintiff’s failure to prosecute

25

this action and failure to obey this Court’s orders. (Doc. No. 26.) Those findings and

26

recommendations were served on plaintiff and contained notice that any objections thereto were

27

to be filed within fourteen (14) days after service. (Id. at 4.) The time to file objections has

28

passed, and no objections have been filed.
