Pro se plaintiff Barren Mar Thuna is suing the Clark County Public Defender, multiple

11

deputy public defenders, and a justice court judge for allegedly violating his First, Fifth, Sixth,

12

and Eighth Amendment rights.1 On October 23, 2017, Magistrate Judge Cam Ferenbach

13

screened Thuna’s complaint, and he recommends that I dismiss counts 1–3 against the justice

14

court judge only and count 4 against all defendants.2

15

November 6, 2017, was the deadline to file objections; that deadline has now passed and

16

Thuna has not objected to Judge Ferenbach’s recommendation. “[N]o review is required of a

17

magistrate judge’s report and recommendation unless objections are filed.”3 Accordingly, with

18

good cause appearing and no reason to delay, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Magistrate Judge

19

Ferenbach’s report and recommendation [ECF No. 7 at 6:21–22] is ADOPTED. Counts 1–3
