IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF OREGON
PORTLAND DIVISION
ANDREW ABRAHAM,
No. 3:16-CV-01877-PK
Plaintiff,
v.
OPINION AND ORDER
CORIZON HEAL TH, INC.,
Defendant.
MOSMAN,J.,
On September 8, 2017, Magistrate Judge Paul Papak issued his Findings and
Recommendation (F&R) [42], recommending that Plaintiff Andrew Abraham's Motion for
Leave to Amend [30] should be denied. Mr. Abraham filed objections [46] and Corizon Health
responded [4 7].
DISCUSSION
The magistrate judge makes only recommendations to the court, to which any party may
file written objections. The court is not bound by the recommendations of the magistrate judge,
but retains responsibility for making the final determination. The court is generally required to
make a de novo determination regarding those portions of the report or specified findings or
recommendation as to which an objection is made. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l)(C). However, the court
is not required to review, de novo or under any other standard, the factual or legal conclusions of
1 - OPINION AND ORDER
the magistrate judge as to those portions of the F&R to which no objections are addressed. See
Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121
(9th Cir. 2003). While the level of scrutiny under which I am required to review the F &R
depends on whether or not objections have been filed, in either case, I am free to accept, reject,
or modify any part of the F&R. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l)(C).
Upon review, I agree with Judge Papak's recommendation and I ADOPT the F&R [42]
as my own opinion. The Motion for Leave to Amend [30] is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
