Trial Court Opinion
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 11 JOSE ANTONIO MARTINEZ, No. 1:25-cv-00854 JLT SAB (PC) 12 Plaintiff, ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS AND DISMISSING 13 v. CERTAIN CLAIMS AND DEFENDANTS 14 RUBY ENRIQUEZ, et al., (Doc. 18)
15 Defendants.
16 17 Plaintiff is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this action filed pursuant to 42
18 U.S.C. § 1983. On October 3, 2025, the Court screened Plaintiff’s first amended complaint and 19 found that Plaintiff stated a cognizable claim for sexual harassment in violation of the Eighth 20 Amendment against Defendant Ruby Enriquez but that his other claims against other defendants 21 were not cognizable as pled. (Doc. 15.) The Court granted Plaintiff leave to file an amended 22 complaint or notify the Court of his intent to proceed only on the deliberate indifference claim. 23 (Id.) On October 23, 2025, Plaintiff filed a notice of intent to proceed on the claim found to be 24 cognizable. (Doc. 16.) 25 On October 24, 2025, the magistrate judge issued Findings and Recommendations 26 recommending that the action proceed only on Plaintiff’s sexual harassment claim against 27 Defendant Enriquez. (Doc. 18.) The Court served the Findings and Recommendations on Plaintiff 28 and notified him that any objections were due within 14 days. (Id. at 2.) The Court also informed 1 | Plaintiff that “the failure to file objections within the specified time may result in the waiver of 2 | the ‘right to challenge the magistrate’s factual findings’ on appeal.” Ud., quoting Wilkerson v. 3 | Wheeler,
772 F.3d 834, 839(9th Cir. 2014).) Plaintiff did not file objections, and the time in 4 | which to do so has passed. 5 According to
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), this Court performed a de novo review of this case. 6 | Having carefully reviewed the matter, the Court concludes the Findings and Recommendations 7 || are supported by the record and proper analysis. Thus, the Court ORDERS: 8 1. The Findings and Recommendations dated October 24, 2025 (Doc. 18) are 9 ADOPTED in full. 10 2. The action shall proceed only on Plaintiff's sexual harassment claim against 11 Defendant Ruby Enriquez. 12 3. All other claims and Defendants are dismissed from the action for failure to state a 13 cognizable claim for relief. 14 4. The matter is referred back to the assigned magistrate judge for further 15 proceedings. 16 7 IT IS SO ORDERED. 1g | Dated: _November 23, 2025 Charis [Tourn TED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
