Opinion

No. CIV S-03-2584 ALA P.

August 3, 2007


ORDER


Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, seeks relief pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local General Order No. 262.

On March 2, 2006, the magistrate judge in the above-captioned case recommended that plaintiff's motion for summary judgment be denied and the motions of defendants Matthews, Caldero and Correa for summary judgment be granted. The court reviewed the March 2, 2006, magistrate judge's findings and recommendations and took no issue with the denial of plaintiff's motion for summary judgment. However, the court declined to adopt the magistrate judge's recommendation with respect to defendants' motion for summary judgment and remanded the case to the magistrate judge for further proceedings. On December 26, 2006, plaintiff filed a motion for a preliminary injunction and on March 20, 2007 filed an amended motion for a preliminary injunction.

Defendants Saunders and Scarsella opposed plaintiff's motion, but did not file motions for summary judgment.

On March 30, 2007, the magistrate judge again recommended that the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment be denied. Additionally the magistrate judge recommended that defendants' motion for summary judgment be denied and that plaintiff's requests for a preliminary injunction also be denied. Copies of these findings and recommendations were served on all parties and contained notices that any objections to the findings and recommendations were to be filed within twenty days. Neither party has filed objections to the March 30, 2007, findings and recommendations.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 72-304, this court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the court finds the Magistrate Judge's March 30, 2007 findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The findings and recommendations filed March 30, 2007, are adopted in full;

2. Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment filed April 25, 2005 is denied;

3. Defendants Correa, Caldero and Matthews's motions for summary judgment filed on June 10, 2005 are denied; and

4. Plaintiff's December 26, 2006 motion for a preliminary injunction and his March 20, 2007 amended motion for a preliminary injunction are denied.
