Before the Court for consideration is the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 33) of the
Honorable Cam Ferenbach, United States Magistrate Judge, entered August 31, 2015.

17

A district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or

18

recommendations made by the magistrate.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). A party may file specific written

19

objections to the findings and recommendations of a magistrate judge. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Local

20

Rule IB 3-2(a). When written objections have been filed, the district court is required to “make a

21

de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings or

22

recommendations to which objection is made.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also Local Rule IB 3-

23

2(b). Where a party fails to object, however, a district court is not required to conduct “any review,”

24

de novo or otherwise, of the report and recommendations of a magistrate judge. Thomas v. Arn,

25

474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985).

Pursuant to Local Rule IB 3-2(a), objections were due by September 17, 2015. No

3

Magistrate Judge’s recommendation(s).
