Nev. R. IB 3-2. Upon the filing of such objections, the Court must make a de novo 19 determination of those portions to which objections are made. Id. The Court may accept, reject, 20 or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the Magistrate Judge. 21 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); D. Nev. IB 3-2(b). Where a party fails to object, however, the Court is 22 not required to conduct “any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an 23 24 1 On December 10, 2020, Plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal as to the R&R. (See Notice of Appeal, ECF No. 16). R&Rs are not appealable as they are not final orders. See Burnside v. Jacquez, 731 F.3d 874, 875 (9th Cir. 2013) 25 (“A notice of appeal from a magistrate judge's report and recommendation is ineffective.”). To the extent the Court can construe the notice as an Objection, Plaintiff fails to specifically object to any deficiencies of the R&R. The Court thus adopts the R&R. 1 objection.” Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). Indeed, the Ninth Circuit has recognized 2 that a district court is not required to review a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation 3 where no objections have been filed. See, e.g., United States v. Reyna–Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 4 1122 (9th Cir. 2003). 5 Here, no objections were filed, and the deadline to do so, November 30, 2020, has 6 passed. (See Report and Recommendation, ECF No. 15). 7 Accordingly, 8 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation, (ECF No. 15), is 9 ACCEPTED AND ADOPTED in full. 10 IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED without prejudice and 11 Plaintiff’s Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, (ECF No. 5), Motion for Preliminary 12 Injunction, (ECF No. 6), Motion for Entry of Clerk’s Default Judgment, (ECF No. 7), and 13 Motions for Summary Judgment, (ECF Nos. 12 and 13) are DENIED as moot. 14 The Clerk of Court shall close the case and enter judgment accordingly. 15 DATED this _1_4___ day of December, 2020. 16 17 18 ___________________________________ Gloria M.
