Defendant(s).

ORDER
15
Presently before the court is the report and recommendation of Magistrate Judge Hoffman.
16
(Doc. # 4). Plaintiff has failed to file any objections to the report and recommendation, and the
17
deadline for filing objections to the report and recommendation has expired.
18
In a previous report and recommendation, the magistrate judge recommended the denial of
19
plaintiff’s application to proceed in forma pauperis because plaintiff’s monthly income exceeds his
20
identified monthly expenses. (See doc. # 2). This court adopted the order in its entirety. (Doc. #
21
3). Plaintiff had thirty days to pay the filing fee of $350.00. Plaintiff never paid the filing fee and
22
the magistrate judge now recommends dismissal of the action. (Doc. # 4). Plaintiff has failed to file
23
objections to the report and recommendation and the deadline for filing objections to the report and
24
recommendation has expired.
25
This court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or
26
recommendations made by the magistrate.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Where a party timely objects to
27
a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, then the court is required to “make a de novo

1
determination of those portions of the [report and recommendation] to which objection is made.”
2
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
3
Where a party fails to object, however, the court is not required to conduct “any review at all
4
. . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection.” Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985).
5
Indeed, the Ninth Circuit has recognized that a district court is not required to review a magistrate
6
judge’s report and recommendation where no objections have been filed. See United States v.
7
Reyna–Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114 (9th Cir.2003) (disregarding the standard of review employed by the
8
district court when reviewing a report and recommendation to which no objections were made); see
9
also Schmidt v. Johnstone, 263 F.Supp. 2d 1219, 1226 (D. Ariz. 2003) (reading the Ninth Circuit’s
10
decision in Reyna–Tapia as adopting the view that district courts are not required to review “any
11
issue that is not the subject of an objection.”). Thus, if there is no objection to a magistrate judge’s
12
recommendation, then this court may accept the recommendation without review. See e.g.,
13
Johnstone, 263 F.Supp.2d at 1226 (accepting, without review, a magistrate judge’s recommendation
14
to which no objection was filed).
15
Upon review of the magistrate judge’s recommendation and good cause appearing,
16
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED, that the report and
17
recommendation of Magistrate Judge Hoffman (doc. # 4) be, and the same hereby is, ADOPTED in
18
its entirety.

21
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the action is dismissed. The clerk of the court shall close
the case and enter judgment.
