Defendants. HERNÁNDEZ, District Judge: Magistrate Judge Acosta issued a Findings and Recommendation [ECF 148] on April 24, 2020, in which he recommends that this Court grant Defendants’ Motions to Dismiss [ECF 104, 120]. The matter is now before the Court pursuant to

(b)(1)(B) and Federal Rule

of Civil Procedure 72(b). Plaintiff filed timely objections to the Magistrate Judge’s Findings & Recommendation. Pl. Obj., ECF 152. When any party objects to any portion of the Magistrate Judge’s Findings & Recommendation, the district court must make a de novo determination of that portion of the Magistrate Judge’s report.

(b)(1); Dawson v. Marshall,

(9th Cir. 2009); United States v. Reyna-Tapia,

(9th Cir. 2003) (en banc). The Court has carefully considered Plaintiff’s objections and concludes that there is no basis to modify the Findings & Recommendation. The Court has also reviewed the pertinent portions of the record de novo and finds no error in the Magistrate Judge’s Findings & Recommendation.

/// /// /// /// /// /// /// /// /// CONCLUSION The Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Acosta’s Findings and Recommendation [ECF 148]. Therefore, Defendants’ motions to dismiss [ECF 104, 120] are GRANTED. Plaintiff’s First Amendment retaliation claim is dismissed with prejudice, and her state-law claims are dismissed

without prejudice to allow pursuit of such claims in state court. IT IS SO ORDERED.
