17 A.J.M, a minor, seeks judicial review of the decision denying his application for Social 18 Security benefits, by and through his guardian ad litem Nancy Moreno. Plaintiff moved to proceed in 19 forma pauperis in this matter, and Ms. Moreno filed an application identifying the household income. 20 (Docs. 2, 7.) The magistrate judge found Ms. Moreno had sufficient income and did not satisfy the 21 requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1915. (Doc. 9 at 2.) Therefore, the magistrate judge recommended the 22 Court deny the application and direct payment of the filing fee. (Id. at 3.) 23 The Court served the Findings and Recommendations on Plaintiff and notified him that any 24 objections were due within 14 days. (Doc. 9 at 3.) The Court advised him that the “failure to file 25 objections within the specified time may result in the waiver of the ‘rights to challenge the magistrate 26 judge’s factual findings’ on appeal.” (Id., quoting Wilkerson v. Wheeler, 772 F.3d 834, 838-39 (9th 27 Cir. 2014).) Plaintiff did not file objections, and the time to do so has passed. On February 10, 2025, 28 the Court received payment of the filing fee in full. 1 According to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), this Court performed a de novo review of this case. 2 || Having carefully reviewed the matter, the Court concludes the Findings and Recommendations are 3 || supported by the record and proper analysis. Thus, the Court ORDERS: 4 1. The Findings and Recommendations dated January 27, 2025 (Doc. 9) are ADOPTED 5 in full. 6 2. Plaintiff's motions to proceed in forma pauperis (Docs. 2, 7) are DENIED. 7 8 || IT IS SO ORDERED.
