ORDER

On June 9, 2011, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein which

17

were served on the parties and which contained notice that any objections to the findings and

18

recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. No objections were filed.

19

Accordingly, the court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v.

20

United States, 602 F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are

21

reviewed de novo. See Britt v. Simi Valley Unified School Dist., 708 F.2d 452, 454 (9th Cir.

22

1983).

23

The court has reviewed the applicable legal standards and, good cause appearing,

24

concludes that it is appropriate to adopt the Proposed Findings and Recommendations in full.
