The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate 20 Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 21 On November 16, 2020, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations which 22 were served on the parties and which contained notice that any objections to the findings and 23 recommendations were to be filed within fourteen (14) days. (ECF No. 12.) On December 2, 24 2020, Plaintiff filed Objections to the Findings and Recommendations (ECF No. 13), which have 25 been considered by the court. 26 This Court reviews de novo those portions of the proposed findings of fact to which 27 objection has been made. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore 28 Business Machines, 656 F.2d 1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 455 U.S. 920 (1982); see 1 Dockets.Justia.com Case 2:20-cv-00950-TLN-KJN Document 14 Filed 12/18/20 Page 2 of 2 1 also Dawson v.

United States, 602 F.2d 207, 208 (9th 4 Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are reviewed de novo. See Britt v. Simi 5 Valley Unified Sch. Dist., 708 F.2d 452, 454 (9th Cir. 1983). 6 Having reviewed the file under the applicable legal standards, the Court finds the Findings 7 and Recommendations to be supported by the record and by the magistrate judge’s analysis. 8 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 9 1. The Findings and Recommendations (ECF No. 12) are adopted in full; 10 2. Plaintiff’s claims are DISMISSED without prejudice; 11 3.
