6 Plaintiff, ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND v. RECOMMENDATION OF U.S. 7 MAGISTRATE JUDGE ERIC BARTON, 8 Defendant. 9 10 11 Pro se Plaintiff Quashawn Sheridan, an inmate in custody of the Nevada 12 Department of Corrections, filed this lawsuit against a New Jersey parole officer 13 in May 2025. (ECF No. 1.) Magistrate Judge Nancy J. Koppe issued a report and 14 recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that the case be dismissed with 15 prejudice as frivolous and closed. (ECF No. 3.) Plaintiff did not object. 16 Under the Federal Magistrates Act, a Court “may accept, reject, or modify, 17 in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by [a] magistrate 18 judge.”

(b)(1). Where a party timely objects to a magistrate judge's 19 report and recommendation, the court is required to “make a de 20 novo determination of those portions of the [report and recommendation] to which 21 objection is made.”

(b)(1). A court is not required to conduct “any 22 review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection.” Thomas v. 23 Arn,

(1985). 24 Plaintiff alleges that in 2011, Defendant, a New Jersey parole officer, 25 conspired with federal informants and federal agents to find that Plaintiff 26 committed a “seat belt violation” to get his parole revoked. (ECF No. 1-1 at 2.) 27 Plaintiff alleges that Defendant also had an affair with his ex-fiancé and used her 28 as a “sex slave” for the purpose of making pornography. (Id. at 2–3.) Judge Koppe 1 || recommended that the complaint be dismissed sua sponte as frivolous. (ECF No. 3.) Plaintiff has not filed an objection to Judge Koppe’s report and 3 || recommendation and his time to do so has now expired. (ECF No. 3.) 4 || Conclusion 5 The Court therefore adopts Judge Koppe’s report and recommendation 6 || (ECF No. 3), except that the case is dismissed without prejudice. 7 Accordingly, the Court dismisses this action without prejudice. The Clerk 8 || of the Court is directed to enter judgment accordingly and close the case. 9 10 DATED: August 6, 2025 11 12 Aras plored Jen 13 14 UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
