IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Judge Robert E. Blackburn
Civil Case No. 10-cv-03177-REB-KMT
STEVE W. BLECK,
Plaintiff,
v.
CITY OF ALAMOSA, COLORADO, and
JEFF MARTINEZ, individually, and in his official capacity as a Law Enforcement Officer
of the Alamosa Police Department,
Defendants.

ORDER ADOPTING RECOMMENDATION OF THE
UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Blackburn, J.
The matter before me is the recommendation to continue the trial in this matter
contained in the Order and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge
[#188]1 filed March 5, 2012. Having been advised that the parties have no objection to
the recommendation (see Stipulated Notice of No Objection to Magistrate’s
Recommendation To Vacate Trial Date [#191] filed March 7, 2012), I review it only for
plain error. See Morales-Fernandez v. Immigration & Naturalization Service, 418
F.3d 1116, 1122 (10th Cir. 2005). Finding no such error in the magistrate judge’s
recommended disposition, I find and conclude that the recommendation should be
approved and adopted.

“[#188]” is an example of the convention I use to identify the docket number assigned to a
specific paper by the court’s electronic case filing and management system (CM/ECF). I use this
convention throughout this order.

THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED as follows:
1. That the Order and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge
[#188] filed March 5, 2012, is APPROVED AND ADOPTED as an order of this court;
2. That the trial, currently scheduled to commence on April 2, 2012, at 8:30 a.m.,
is VACATED and CONTINUED pending further order of the court; and
3. That the Trial Preparation Conference and trial SHALL BE RESET during a
telephonic setting conference on April 10, 2012, at 10:00 a.m. (MDT); provided,
furthermore, that counsel for plaintiff SHALL ARRANGE and COORDINATE
the conference call necessary to facilitate the setting conference.
Dated March 7, 2012, at Denver, Colorado.
BY THE COURT:
