Edward Clayton Whittaker v. Christine Carringer, et al.

Opinion

EDWARD CLAYTON WHITTAKER, Case No. 2:25-cv-1862-TLN-JDP (PS) Plaintiff, v. ORDER CHRISTINE CARRINGER, et al., Defendants. This matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. On December 19, 2025, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein which were served on the parties and which contained notice that any objections to the findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. (ECF No. 9.) No objections were filed and the time to do so has elapsed. The court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v. United States, 602 F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are reviewed de novo. See Robbins v. Carey, 481 F.3d 1143, 1147 (9th Cir. 2007) (“[D]eterminations of law by the magistrate judge are reviewed de novo by both the district court and [the appellate] court . . . .”). Having reviewed the file, the Court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by the proper analysis. /// ] Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 1. The proposed Findings and Recommendations filed December 19, 2025, ECF No. 9, are ADOPTED in full; 2. Plaintiff's amended complaint, ECF No. 8, is DISMISSED without leave to amend; and 3. The Clerk of Court is directed to close the case. Date: April 20, 2026
