Case No.: 2:19-cv-01105-APG-DJA

Order Accepting Report and Recommendation and Dismissing Case
[ECF No. 8]
On December 10, 2019, Magistrate Judge Albregts recommended that I dismiss this case without prejudice because plaintiff Tiffany Perkins failed to file a completed application to proceed in forma pauperis as directed. ECF No. 8. Perkins did not file an objection. Thus, I am not obligated to conduct a de novo review of the report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (requiring district courts to "make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings to which objection is made"); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc) ("the district judge must review the magistrate judge's findings and recommendations de novo if objection is made, but not otherwise" (emphasis in original)).
I THEREFORE ORDER that Judge Albregts' report and recommendation (ECF No. 8) is accepted and this case is dismissed without prejudice. The clerk of court is instructed to close this case.
DATED this 9th day of January, 2020.
