Opinion
Civ. No. 10-3113-CL.
March 18, 2011
ORDER
Magistrate Judge Mark D. Clarke filed a Report and Recommendation, and the matter is now before this court. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b). Although no objections have been filed, this court reviews the legal principles de novo. See Lorin Corp. v Goto Co., Ltd., 700 F.2d 1202, 1206 (9th Cir. 1983).
I have given the legal issues de novo review. I agree with Magistrate Judge Clarke that plaintiffs' motion to strike should be denied. I also agree that defendants' motions to dismiss should be granted in part and denied in part, as explained in the Report and Recommendation's thorough discussion. Accordingly, I ADOPT the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Clarke.
CONCLUSION
Magistrate Judge Clarke's Report and Recommendation (#60) is adopted. Plaintiffs' motion to strike (#49) is denied. Defendants' motion to dismiss (#42) is granted in part and denied in part as explained by the Report and Recommendation.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
