(PS) Winters, et al v. Jordan, et al Doc. 177 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 BRENT ALLEN WINTERS, et al., 11 12 13 Plaintiff, No. CIV-S-09-0522-JAM-KJN-PS vs. DELORES JORDAN, et al., ORDER 14 15 16 Defendants. __________________________________/ On July 20, 2010, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein which 17 were served on the parties and which contained notice that any objections to the findings and 18 recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. (Dkt. No. 144.) On August 11, 2010, 19 plaintiffs filed untimely objections to the magistrate judge’s findings and recommendations. 20 (Dkt. No. 156.) Despite the untimely nature of plaintiffs’ objections, the undersigned has 21 considered those objections out of an abundance of caution. 22 This court reviews de novo those portions of the proposed findings of fact to which 23 objection has been made. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore 24 Business Machines, 656 F.2d 1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 455 U.S. 920 (1982). As 25 to any portion of the proposed findings of fact to which no objection has been made, the court 26 assumes its correctness and decides the motions on the applicable law. See Orand v. United 1 Dockets.Justia.com 1 States, 602 F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are 2 reviewed de novo. See Britt v. Simi Valley Unified School Dist., 708 F.2d 452, 454 (9th Cir. 3 1983). 4 5 The court has reviewed the applicable legal standards and, good cause appearing, concludes that it is appropriate to adopt the Proposed Findings and Recommendations in full. 6 Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that: 7 1. The Proposed Findings and Recommendations filed July 20, 2010 (Dkt. No. 144), are 8 9 ADOPTED; and 2. The judicial defendants’ motion to dismiss (Dkt. No. 107) is granted and plaintiffs’ 10 claims against defendants Thomas A. Anderson, Candace Heidelberger, Delores Spindler, Hilary 11 Berardi (formerly known as Hilary Burget), Connie Beckett, Audrey Golden, Kiira Jefferson, 12 Teresa Long, and Sean Metroka are dismissed with prejudice. 13 DATED: September 13, 2010 14 15 /s/ John A.
