Opinion
Case No.: 2: 16-cv-00070-GMN-NJK

MICHAEL BUONPASTORE, Plaintiff, v. CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.
ORDER
Pending before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Nancy J. Koppe (ECF No. 36), entered on March 28, 2017.
A party may file specific written objections to the findings and recommendations of a United States Magistrate Judge made pursuant to Local Rule IB 1-4. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B); D. Nev. R. IB 3-2. Upon the filing of such objections, the Court must make a de novo determination of those portions to which objections are made. Id. 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); D. Nev. IB 3-2(b). Where a party fails to object, however, the Court is not required to conduct "any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection." Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). Indeed, the Ninth Circuit has recognized that a district court is not required to review a magistrate judge's report and recommendation where no objections have been filed. See, e.g., United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1122 (9th Cir. 2003).
Here, no objections were filed, and the deadline to do so has passed.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 36) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED in full.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff Michael Buonpastore's Motion for Reversal and/or Remand (ECF No. 33) is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant Acting Commissioner Carolyn W. Colvin's Cross-Motion to Affirm (ECF No. 35) is GRANTED.
The Clerk of Court shall enter judgment accordingly and close the case.
DATED this 17 day of April, 2017.
