DENNIS RUSSELL HOOPER, Plaintiff, v. JACKSON COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE, et al., Defendants.
ORDER
PANNER, J.
Magistrate Judge Mark D. Clarke filed a Report and Recommendation, and the matter is now before this court. See U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). Although no objections have been filed, I review legal principles de novo. See Robbins v. Carey, 481 F.3d 1143, 1147 (9th Cir. 2007).
I agree with Magistrate Judge Clarke that plaintiff has failed to state a claim based on the alleged failure to reimburse. I also agree that plaintiff's other claims against the Jackson County Sheriff's Office, liberally construed, should not be dismissed at this time.
CONCLUSION
Magistrate Judge Clarke's Report and Recommendation (#31) is adopted. Defendants' motion to dismiss (#25) is granted as to the claim for failure to reimburse and otherwise denied.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
