Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985) (citing 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)). Indeed, 20 the Ninth Circuit has recognized that a district court is not required to review a magistrate 21 judge’s report and recommendation where no objections have been filed. See, e.g., United 22 States v. Reyna–Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1122 (9th Cir. 2003). 23 Here, no objections to the R&R were filed, and the deadline to do so has passed.
