ORDER

ROBERT E. JONES, United States District Judge

Magistrate Judge Janice M. Stewart filed Findings and Recommendation (#27) on September 20, 2002, in the above entitled case. The matter is now before me pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b). When either party objects to any portion of a magistrate judge's Findings and Recommendation, the district court must make a de novo determination of that portion of the magistrate judge's report. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Business Machines, Inc., 656 F.2d 1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 455 U.S. 920 (1982).

Petitioner has timely filed objections. I have, therefore, given de novo review of Magistrate Judge Stewart's rulings.

I find no error. Accordingly, I ADOPT Magistrate Judge Stewart's Findings and Recommendation (#27) dated September 19, 2002, in its entirety. Respondent's motion (#12) to dismiss U.S. Bank's petition to compel arbitration is GRANTED and the Petition is dismissed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
