OPINION AND ORDER ADOPTING JUDGE BECKERMAN'S FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION
Karin J. Immergut, United States District Judge
No objections have been filed in response to Judge Beckerman's Findings and Recommendation, ECF 62. This Court ADOPTS the F&R.
LEGAL STANDARDS
Under the Federal Magistrates Act (“Act”), as amended, the court may “accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). If a party objects to a magistrate judge's F&R, “the court shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which objection is made.” Id. But the court is not required to review, de novo or under any other standard, the factual or legal conclusions of the F&R that are not objected to. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-50 (1985); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc). Nevertheless, the Act “does not preclude further review by the district judge, sua sponte” whether de novo or under another standard. Thomas, 474 U.S. at 154.
CONCLUSION
No objections have been filed in response to the F&R. The F&R, ECF 62, is adopted in full. This Court DENIES Defendants' Motion to Dismiss, ECF 39.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
