Under the relevant statute:
Within fourteen days after being served with a copy, any party may serve and file
written objections to such proposed findings and recommendations as provided by
rules of court. A judge of the court shall make a de novo determination of those
portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which
objection is made.

The failure to file written objections to the report and recommendation of a magistrate judge
constitutes a waiver of a de novo determination by the district court of an issue covered in the report.
