IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF MONTANA
MISSOULA DIVISION

TRAVIS CLINTON RHETT
PLANTIKO,
ORDER

Plaintiff,
vs.
MARC JOHNSON, HEATHER
SMITH, MEGAN COY, and D.O.C.,
Defendants.

United States Magistrate Judge Jeremiah C. Lynch entered his Order and
Findings and Recommendations in this case on October 18, 2017, recommending
dismissal of specific defendants. (Doc. 12 at 3.) Plaintiff Travis Clinton Rhett
Plantiko did not timely object to the Findings and Recommendations, and so has
waived the right to de novo review thereof. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1 )(C). This Court
reviews for clear error those findings and recommendations to which no party
objects. See McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Bus. Mach., Inc., 656 F.2d
1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981); Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). Clear error
exists if the Court is left with a "definite and firm conviction that a mistake has
been committed." United States v. Syrax, 235 F.3d 422, 427 (9th Cir. 2000)
