MARK DAVID BLACK EAGLE, Plaintiff, v. ERIK SLETTEN, Defendant.

SUSAN P. WATTERS United States District Judge

ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE'S FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The United States Magistrate Judge filed Findings and Recommendations on August 20, 2018. (Doc. 7). The Magistrate recommended the Court deny the Plaintiff's motion to reconsider. (Doc. 7 at 3).

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), parties are required to file written objections within 14 days of the filing of the Magistrate's Findings and Recommendation. No objections were filed. When neither party objects, this Court reviews the Magistrate's Findings and Recommendation for clear error. McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Bus. Mach., Inc., 656 F.2d 1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981). Clear error exists if the Court is left with a "definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed." United States v. Syrax, 235 F.3d 422, 427 (9th Cir. 2000). After reviewing the Findings and Recommendation, this Court does not find that the Magistrate committed clear error.

IT IS ORDERED that the proposed Findings and Recommendations entered by the United States Magistrate Judge (Doc. 7) are ADOPTED IN FULL.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED the Plaintiff's motion to reconsider (Doc. 4) is denied.

DATED this 24^th day of September, 2018.
