Further, Plaintiff Brown filed his Amended Complaint (dkt #6) following the Order (dkt #3) by United States Magistrate Judge Keith Strong. Thereafter, Judge Strong entered Findings and Recommendation in this matter on January 26,2010. Plaintiff Brent Brown did not timely object and so has waived the right to de novo review of the record. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)( 1). This Court Dockets.Justia.com reviews the Findings and Recommendation for clear error. McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Bus. Mach .. Inc., 656 F.2d 1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981). Clear error exists if the Court is left with a "definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed." United States v. Syrax, 235 F.3d 422, 427 (9th Cir. 2000). I can find no clear error with Judge Strong's recommendation and therefore adopt it in full. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Judge Strong's Findings and Recommendation (dkt #7) are adopted in full. The claims against Defendants Governor Brian Schweitzer, Montana Department of Corrections, Mike Ferriter, Ted Ward, Myrna Ohmolt-Mason, Laura Janes, Norma Jean Boles, Sherri Townsend, Liz Rantz, Montana State Prison, Mike Mahoney, and John and Jane Does 5-20 are DISMISSED.
