6 COLEMAN JEFFERSON VAOGA, Case No. 3:21-cv-00377-MMD-CLB

7 Plaintiff, ORDER v. 8 STATE OF CALIFORNIA, et al., 9 Defendants. 10 11 Pro se Plaintiff Coleman Vaoga submitted a civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. 12 § 1983. (ECF No. 1-1.) Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United 13 States Magistrate Judge Carla L. Baldwin (ECF No. 10 (“R&R”)), recommending that 14 Vaoga’s application to proceed in forma pauperis (ECF No. 6) be granted, his complaint 15 (ECF No. 1-1) be dismissed with prejudice, and that this action be closed, and judgment 16 entered accordingly. Vaoga had until January 3, 2022, to file an objection. To date, no 17 objection to the R&R has been filed. For this reason, and as explained below, the Court 18 adopts the R&R in full and will close this case. 19 The Court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or 20 recommendations made by the magistrate judge.”

(b)(1). Where a party 21 fails to object to a magistrate judge’s recommendation, the Court is not required to 22 conduct “any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection.” Thomas 23 v. Arn,

(1985); see also United States v. Reyna-Tapia,

, 24 1116 (9th Cir. 2003) (“De novo review of the magistrate judges’ findings and 25 recommendations is required if, but only if, one or both parties file objections to the 26 findings and recommendations.”) (emphasis in original); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72, Advisory 27 Committee Notes (1983) (providing that the Court “need only satisfy itself that there is no 1 Because there is no objection, the Court need not conduct de novo review, and is 2 || satisfied that Judge Baldwin did not clearly err.
