Plaintiff,

v.
LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE
DEPARTMENT, et al.,

ORDER ON REPORT AND
RECOMMENDATION
(ECF. NO. 8)

Defendants.

On August 24, 2017, Magistrate Judge Hoffman entered a report and recommendation that

12

I dismiss this case with prejudice because plaintiff George Dollar has ceased participating in the

13

case and has not complied with the court’s orders. Dollar did not file an objection. Thus, I am

14

not obligated to conduct a de novo review of the report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. §

15

636(b)(1) (requiring district courts to “make a de novo determination of those portions of the

16

report or specified proposed findings to which objection is made”); United States v. Reyna-Tapia,

17

328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc) (“the district judge must review the magistrate

18

judge’s findings and recommendations de novo if objection is made, but not otherwise” (emphasis

19

in original)). I nevertheless find that Judge Hoffman sets forth the proper legal analysis and

20

factual basis for the decision.

21

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Judge Hoffman’s report and recommendation (ECF

22

No. 8) is accepted. Plaintiff George Dollar’s complaint is DISMISSED with prejudice. The

23

clerk of court is directed to enter judgment accordingly.

24

DATED this 29th day of September, 2017.
