District Court, D. Oregon

Hall v. Trillium Community Health Plan

Trial Court Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF OREGON

EUGENE DIVISION

DAVID LEE HALL, II, Case No. 6:19-cv-01920-MK ORDER Plaintiff,

v.

TRILLIUM COMMUNITY HEALTH PLAN, OREGON HEALTH PLAN,

Defendant, _______________________________________ AIKEN, District Judge. Magistrate Judge Mustafa Kasubhai filed his Amended Findings and Recommendations (“F&R”) (doc. 9) recommending that plaintiff’s case be dismissed, with prejudice. This case is now before me. See

28 U.S.C. § 636

(b)(1)(B) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). When either party objects to any portion of a magistrate judge’s F&R, the district court must make a de novo determination of that portion of the magistrate judge’s report. See

28 U.S.C. § 636

(b)(1); McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Business Machines, Inc.,

656 F.2d 1309, 1313

(9th Cir. 1981), cert denied,

455 U.S. 920

(1982). In response to Magistrate Judge Kasubhai’s F&R, plaintiff filed a document which is styled as a complaint. (doc. 11) However, having reviewed the document and in the interest of fairness the Court construes the document as timely objections to the F&R. Thus, the Court reviews the F&R de novo.

Having reviewed the record of this case, the Court finds that the complaint should be dismissed for failure to state a claim and for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Thus, the Court adopts Magistrate Judge Kasubhai’s F&R (doc. 9) in its entirety. Accordingly, this action is dismissed. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated this _2_7_t_h_ day of May 2020.
