Before the Court for consideration is the Report and Recommendation [ECF No. 22] of the
Honorable Nancy J. Koppe, United States Magistrate Judge, entered June 23, 2017.

18

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

19

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

20

written objections to the findings and recommendations of a magistrate judge. 28 U.S.C. §

21

636(b)(1); Local Rule IB 3-2(a). When written objections have been filed, the district court is

22

required to “make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed

23

findings or recommendations to which objection is made.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also Local

24

Rule IB 3-2(b). Where a party fails to object, however, a district court is not required to conduct

25

“any review,” de novo or otherwise, of the report and recommendations of a magistrate judge.

26

Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). Pursuant to Local Rule IB 3-2(a), objections were due

27

by July 7, 2017. No objections have been filed. The Court has reviewed the record in this case

28

and concurs with the Magistrate Judge’s recommendations.
