On May 16, 2016, Magistrate Judge Koppe dismissed plaintiff Faron Gordon’s complaint

11

without prejudice and gave him until June 16, 2016, to file an amended complaint.1 She cautioned

12

Gordon that, if he chose to file an amended complaint, it must be either type-written or hand-written

13

legibly. She also ordered Gordon to pay the filing fee or submit a completed application to proceed

14

in forma pauperis. Though Gordon submitted an application to proceed in forma pauperis, he has

15

not submitted an amended complaint, and the deadline for doing so has expired.

16

On June 27, 2016, Magistrate Judge Koppe granted Gordon’s application to proceed in forma

17

pauperis,2 and she now recommends dismissing this case without prejudice because Gordon failed to

18

file an amended complaint, leaving no operative complaint in this case. Objections to the magistrate

19

judge’s recommendations were due by July 14, 2016, and Gordon has not filed an objection or

20

requested an extension to do so. “[N]o review is required of a magistrate judge’s report and

21

recommendation unless objections are filed.”3 Accordingly, and with good cause appearing,

22
23

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the report and recommendation [ECF No. 4] is
ADOPTED; this case is DISMISSED without prejudice.
