(Id. at 21–22; Proposed J. of Foreclosure and Sale, appended to Pl.’s Mot. for Default J., Docket Entry No. 19- 21.) Fourth, Judge Cho recommended that the claims brought against “John Doe #1” through “John Doe #12” be dismissed and the caption be amended to substitute “Citibank, National Association” for “Citibank (South Dakota) N.A.” (R&R 23.) No objections to the R&R have been filed and the time for doing so has passed. II. Discussion A district court reviewing a magistrate judge’s recommended ruling “may accept, reject,
