(PC) Hodges v. Seibert

8 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA JAMES ALBERT HODGES, No. 2:20-cv-00896-JAM-CKD 12 Plaintiff, 13 v. ORDER J. SEIBERT, et al., 15 Defendants.

17 Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed this civil rights action seeking relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

20 On August 28, 2020, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein which were served on plaintiff and which contained notice to plaintiff that any objections to the findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. Plaintiff has not filed objections to the findings and recommendations.

24 The court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v. United States, 602 25 F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are reviewed de novo.

26 See Britt v. Simi Valley Unified School Dist., 708 F.2d 452, 454 (9th Cir. 1983). Having reviewed the file, the court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by the magistrate judge’s analysis.

1 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 2 1. The findings and recommendations filed August 28, 2020, are adopted in full; and 3 2. Plaintiff’s August 20, 2020 letter regarding concerns for his safety (ECF No. 12) is construed as a request for a temporary restraining order. So construed, the request is denied without prejudice.

DATED: October 13, 2020 /s/ John A. Mendez THE HONORABLE JOHN A. MENDEZ 9 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE
