1 2 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF NEVADA 3

4 Robert James Swint, et al., Case No. 2:24-cv-00433-CDS-EJY

5 Plaintiffs Order Adopting Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation and Closing Case 6 v.

7 Oregon Lottery Commission, et al., [ECF Nos. 1, 3]

8 Defendants

9 10 Plaintiffs Robert and Sandra Swint allege “unlawful crisscross apple saucing” against an 11 array of defendants. Because the Swints apply to proceed in forma pauperis, Magistrate Judge Elayna 12 Youchah screened the complaint and recommends that it be dismissed with prejudice. R&R, ECF 13 No. 3. 14 Under this district’s local rules, the Swints had until March 22, 2024 to file any 15 objections to the R&R.

(b)(1); LR IB 3-2(a) (stating that parties wishing to object 16 to an R&R must file objections within fourteen days). As of the date of this order, the plaintiffs 17 have neither objected to the R&R nor requested more time to do so. And “no review is required of 18 a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation unless objections are filed.” Schmidt v. Johnstone, 19

(D. Ariz. 2003); see also Thomas v. Arn,

(1985); United 20 States v. Reyna-Tapia,

(9th Cir. 2003). I nonetheless reviewed Judge Youchah’s 21 R&R and agree with her findings. 22 As Judge Youchah correctly summarized, the Swints’ filing is comprised of 23 incomprehensible gibberish, and no actual facts are alleged. See generally Complaint, ECF No. 1-1. 24 Pro se litigants should be given leave to amend unless it is absolutely clear that the defective 25 complaint cannot be cured by amendment. Lucas v. Dep’t of Corr.,

(9th Cir. 1995). 26 Here, plaintiffs’ mostly indecipherable complaint is nothing more than gibberish that fails to state 1 cognizable claim under federal law. No amendment can cure these defects. Amendment would 2 ||thus be futile and therefore denied. 3 Conclusion 4 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Youchah’s report and 5 ||recommendation [ECF No. 3] is ADOPTED in its entirety. Swint’s application to proceed in 6 |/forma pauperis [ECF No. 1] is DENIED as moot. 7 This action is dismissed with prejudice. The Clerk of Court is kindly instructed to enter 8 ||judgment accordingly and to close this case. 9 Dated: March 25, 2024 /) 10 Lf ul caching Unis d States District Judge 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
