Case No. 2:16-CV-1149 JCM (GWF)
Plaintiff(s),
ORDER
v.
ROBERT CESSOR, et al.,
11
Defendant(s).
12
13
Presently before the court is Magistrate Judge Foley’s report and recommendation
14
(“R&R”). (ECF No. 3). No objections have been filed, and the deadline for filing objections has
15
since passed.
16
The magistrate judge recommends plaintiff’s complaint be dismissed with prejudice based
17
on plaintiff’s failure to pay the complaint filing fee or file an application to proceed in forma
18
pauperis within the time allotted by the court. (ECF No. 3).
19
This court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or
20
recommendations made by the magistrate.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Where a party timely objects
21
to a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, then the court is required to “make a de novo
22
determination of those portions of the [report and recommendation] to which objection is made.”
23
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
24
Where a party fails to object, however, the court is not required to conduct “any review at
25
all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection.” Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149
26
(1985). Indeed, the Ninth Circuit has recognized that a district court is not required to review a
27
magistrate judge’s report and recommendation where no objections have been filed. See United
28
States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114 (9th Cir. 2003) (disregarding the standard of review
James C. Mahan
U.S. District Judge
1
employed by the district court when reviewing a report and recommendation to which no
2
objections were made).
3
Nevertheless, this court finds it appropriate to engage in a de novo review to determine
4
whether to adopt the recommendation of the magistrate judge.
5
recommendation and underlying briefs, the court finds that good cause appears to ADOPT the
6
magistrate judge’s findings.
7
Accordingly,
8
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that Magistrate Judge
9
Foley’s report and recommendation (ECF No. 3) be, and the same hereby is, ADOPTED in its
10
11
12
Upon reviewing the
entirety.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the instant case be, and the same hereby is, DISMISSED
with prejudice.
13
The clerk shall close the case.
14
DATED March 20, 2017.
