Petitioner,

On December 18, 2012, Magistrate Judge Nathanael Cousins issued a report and

13 recommendation that the verified petition to enforce an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”)
14 summons be granted in this case. The government served the report and recommendation on
15 Respondent Kent Sato by mail on January 7, 2013. Sato, who has made no appearance in
16 this matter, filed no objections within the time allowed under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
17 72(b)(2).

Having carefully reviewed the report and recommendation, the Court finds good cause

19 to adopt it in its entirety. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS the government’s petition. On or
20 before February 5, 2013, the government shall file a proposed order enforcing the summons.
