The United States Magistrate Judge filed Findings and Recommendations on April 2, 2025. (Doc. 18). The Magistrate recommended that Riley’s Amended Complaint be dismissed without prejudice. (ld. at 2). Pursuant to

(b)(1), parties are required to file written objections within 14 days of the filing of the Magistrate’s Findings and Recommendation. No objections were filed. When neither party objects, this Court reviews the Magistrate’s Findings and Recommendation for clear error. McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Bus. Mach., Inc.,

(9th Cir. 1981). Clear error exists if the Court is left with a “definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed.” United States v. Syrax,

(9th Cir.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Riley’s Amended Complaint (Doc. 5) be DISMISSED without prejudice.
