12 BARRETT, et al.,

13 Defendants.

14 15 Before the Court for consideration is the Report and Recommendation [ECF No. 84] of the 16 Honorable Brenda Weksler, United States Magistrate Judge, entered August 31, 2020. 17 A district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or 18 recommendations made by the magistrate.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). A party may file specific 19 written objections to the findings and recommendations of a magistrate judge. 28 U.S.C. § 20 636(b)(1); Local Rule IB 3-2(a). When written objections have been filed the district court is 21 required to “make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed 22 findings or recommendations to which objection is made.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); see also Local 23 Rule IB 3-2(b). Where a party fails to object, however, a district court is not required to conduct 24 “any review,” de novo or otherwise, of the report and recommendations of a magistrate judge. 25 Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). Pursuant to Local Rule IB 3-2(a), objections were due 26 by September 14, 2020. No objections have been filed. The Court has reviewed the record in this 27 case and concurs with the Magistrate Judge’s recommendations. 28 . . . 1 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation [ECF No. 84] is 2 | ACCEPTED and ADOPTED in full. 3 IT IS FURTHER that Plaintiff’ s motion to amend his complaint is DENIED to the extent he seeks to add Gilmore as a Defendant. 5 IT IS FURTHER ODERED that Plaintiff’s motion to amend his complaint is DENIED tothe extent it seeks to add Carson City as a defendant. 7 IT IS FURTHER ODERED that Plaintiffs motion to amend his complaint is DENIED 8 | to the extent it seeks to add claims against Howell, Gentry and Dzurenda. 9 my 10 DATED: October 28, 2020. a} ul WARE, II 2 United States District Judge 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
