Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed this civil rights action seeking relief

19

28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.
On May 26, 2020, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein which

20
21

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

22

and recommendations were to be filed within thirty days. Plaintiff filed objections to the findings

23

and recommendations, and included a request for appointment of counsel.
In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 304, this

24
25

court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the

26

court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper

27

analysis.
