Opinion
Civil No. 99-1056-AS
November 1, 2000
ORDER
Magistrate Judge Donald C. Ashmanskas filed his Findings and Recommendation on September 6, 2000. The matter is now before me. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Fed.R. Civ P. 72(b). No objections have been timely filed. This relieves me of my obligation to give the factual findings de novo review. See § 636(b)(1)(C); Simpson v. Lear Astronics Corp., 77 F.3d 1170, 1174-5 (9th Cir. 1996). Having reviewed the legal principles de novo, I find no error.
Accordingly, I ADOPT Magistrate Ashmanskas' Findings and Recommendation #82. Defendant's motion (#34) for summary judgment is DENIED with regard to defendant Freudenthaler and is GRANTED with regard to defendant Touch. Defendant's motion (#34) to strike is DENIED AS MOOT.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
