Warren Frederickson (“Plaintiff”) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

18
19

pauperis in this civil rights action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to

20

a United States magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.
On August 31, 2020, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations,

21
22

recommending that “[t]his action be dismissed for failure to state a claim,” and that “[t]he Clerk

23

of Court be directed to close the case.” (Doc. No. 13 at 8.)
Plaintiff was provided an opportunity to file objections to the findings and

24
25

recommendations and then granted plaintiff an extension to do so. (See Doc. No. 15.) The

26

extended deadline to file objections has passed, and plaintiff has not filed objections or otherwise

27

responded to the findings and recommendations.
