Attorney for Defendant HERNANDEZ, District Judge:

Magistrate Judge Janice M. Stewart issued a Findings and Recommendation ("F&R") (doc. #146) on October 19, 2012. Plaintiff timely filed objections to the Magistrate Judge's F&R. The matter is now before me pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and rule 72(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

When any party objects to any portion of the Magistrate Judge's F&R, the district court must make a de novo review of that portion. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Dawson v. Marshall, 561 F.3d 930, 932 (9th Cir. 2009); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc). I have carefully considered Plaintiff's objections and conclude that the objections do not provide a basis to modify the F&R. I have also reviewed the pertinent portions of the record de novo and find no error in the Magistrate Judge's F&R.

CONCLUSION

The Magistrate Judge's F&R (doc. #146) is ADOPTED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
