ORDER
Defendants.
This matter is before the Court pursuant to Plaintiff Eddie L. Pitts’ (“Plaintiff”) request
that this Court reconsider Plaintiff’s objections (ECF No. 118) to the Magistrate Judge’s findings
and recommendations (“Findings and Recommendations”) (ECF No. 117). (Plaintiff’s Ex Parte
19
Communication, ECF No. 122.) On September 12, 2014, Magistrate Judge Allison Claire filed
20
the Findings and Recommendations granting in part and denying in part a number of motions
21
submitted by Plaintiff. (ECF No. 117.) Parties were given twenty-one days to file objections to
22
the Findings and Recommendations. (ECF No. 117.) Plaintiff filed objections on October 9,
23
2014. (ECF No. 118.) This Court considered those objections and issued an order adopting the
24
Findings and Recommendations on November 6, 2014. (ECF No. 121.) On November 10, 2014,
25
Plaintiff filed additional objections to the Findings and Recommendations. (ECF No. 122.)
26
Plaintiff’s submission of additional objections to the Findings and Recommendations is
27
28

untimely and Plaintiff fails to seek leave from the Court for its late submission.1 (ECF No. 122.)

Therefore, the Court is not required to consider these objections. Failure to file objections within
3
the specified time may waive the to appeal the District Court‘s order. Martinez v. Ylst, 951 F.2d
4
1153 (9th Cir. 1991). However, in an abundance of caution, the Court has reviewed Plaintiff’s
5
further objections and finds no cause to vacate its order adopting the Findings and
6
Recommendations. For these reasons, the Court denies Plaintiff’s Ex Parte Communication
7
seeking reconsideration of the Magistrate Judge’s Findings and Recommendations. (ECF No.
8
122.)

Although this document was filed on November 10, 2014, Plaintiff’s proof of service indicates that the document
was prepared and submitted on October 14, 2014. In either case, the filing is untimely.
