Sweet v. Clark County WA Office of Indigent Defense et al Doc. 29 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF OREGON PORTLAND DIVISION DIANE R. SWEET, No. 3:18-cv-00124-YY Plaintiff, OPINION AND ORDER v. CLARK COUNTY WA OFFICE OF INDIGENT DEFENSE, General Services Department, Clark County WA, ANN CHRISTIAN, Clark County WA Indigent Defense Manager, and ANGELA COLAIUTA, Clark County WA Indigent Defense Coordinator, Defendants. MOSMAN,J., On June 19, 2018, Magistrate Judge Youlee Yim You issued her Findings and Recommendation (F&R) [26], recommending that Plaintiffs motion for summary judgment [17] should be denied, Defendants' motion to dismiss [19] should be GRANTED, and this case should be dismissed. No party objected. DISCUSSION The magistrate judge makes only recommendations to the court, to which any party may file written objections. The court is not bound by the recommendations of the magistrate judge, 1 - OPINION AND ORDER Dockets.Justia.com but retains responsibility for making the final determination. The court is generally required to make a de novo determination regarding those portions of the report or specified findings or recommendation as to which an objection is made. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l)(C). However, the court is not required to review, de novo or under any other standard, the factual or legal conclusions of the magistrate judge as to those portions of the F&R to which no objections are addressed. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003). While the level of scrutiny under which I am required to review the F&R depends on whether or not objections have been filed, in either case, I am free to accept, reject, or modify any part of the F&R. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(l)(C). Upon review, I agree with Judge You' s recommendation and I ADOPT the F &R [26] in full. Plaintiffs motion for summary judgment [17] is DENIED, Defendants' motion to dismiss [19] is GRANTED, and this case is DISMISSED without prejudice. IT IS SO ORDERED. DATED this day of July, 2018. 2 - OPINION AND ORDER
