CASE NO. 1:12-CV-00476-MAC

ORDER ADOPTING AMENDED REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION GRANTING
IN PART PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AGAINST
EFIGENIO CONTRERAS
Plaintiff United States of America (“United States”) filed this lawsuit against Defendants
Efigenio A. Contreras and Laura Denise Contreras (“the Contrerases”) to, among other things,
reduce to judgment the Contrerases’ federal income tax liabilities, to foreclose its federal tax
liens against certain property, and for a judicial sale of the property. On March 3, 2020, the court
granted the agreed judgment between the United States and Ms. Contreras, and Ms. Contreras is
no longer a party to this case. Doc. No. 94. On March 25, 2020, United States Magistrate Judge
Zack Hawthorn entered an amended report (Doc. No. 98) which recommended granting in part the
United States’ “Motion for Summary Judgment” (Doc. No. 79) against Efigenio Contreras. Mr.
Contreras failed to file objections to the magistrate judge’s amended report and recommendation,
and the time for doing so has passed.

A final judgment will be entered separately.
