Plaintiff Melvin Stonum (“Plaintiff”), a state prisoner, proceeds without counsel in an

action brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate

19

Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

20

On December 21, 2020, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein

21

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

22

findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. (ECF No. 17.) Plaintiff has

not filed objections to the findings and recommendations.
The Court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v. United States, 602
