(Doc. 19.) Judgment was entered July 7, 2010. (Doc. 20.) 20 In the Order, this Court stated that “no party ha[d] . . . filed objections” to the Findings and 21 Recommendations. (Doc. 19 at 2.) However, this statement was erroneous. The Court has 22 learned that Plaintiff did forward his objections in a timely fashion.1 23 24 1 27 Plaintiff’s objections were due on or before July 1, 2010. The certificate of service indicates the pleading was deposited for mailing on June 30, 2010. In light of the observance of Independence Day on July 5, 2010, the fact Plaintiff’s objections were filed on July 6, 2010, does not render the objections tardy. Unfortunately, Plaintiff’s objections were not entered onto the Court’s docket until July 7, 2010, after the Order and Judgment had been entered and served. 28 1 25 26 Dockets.Justia.com 1 2 In light of the foregoing, and pursuant to Rule 60 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, this Court ORDERS as follows: 3 1. The Judgment entered July 7, 2010, is hereby SET ASIDE; 4 2. The Clerk of the Court is DIRECTED to reopen this case; 5 3. Thereafter, the Court will consider Plaintiff’s timely objections. 6 7 IT IS SO ORDERED. 8 9 Dated: 0m8i78 July 11, 2010 CHIEF UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 2
