UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TAJHIKEEM WOODS,

Plaintiff,

v.

RODDRICK, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:14-cv-2458 MCE AC (P)

ORDER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed this civil rights action seeking relief 

under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 

28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

On September 18, 2015, the magistrate judge filed Findings and Recommendations herein

(ECF No. 28), which were served on Plaintiff and which contained notice that any objections to 

the Findings and Recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. Plaintiff has filed 

“objections” which, liberally construed, do not contest the magistrate judge findings and 

recommendations. ECF No. 30.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 304, the 

Court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the 

Court finds the Findings and Recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper 

analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Findings and Recommendations filed September 18, 2015 (ECF No. 28) are 

ADOPTED IN FULL; 

2. The judgment entered in this action on August 20, 2015 (ECF No. 25) (and therefore 

the Findings and Recommendations filed June 12, 2015 (ECF No. 20)) are VACATED; and

3. This action is reopened for further consideration of Plaintiff’s First Amended 

Complaint (ECF No. 15) and the merits of this action, including Plaintiff’s Motion for Protective 

Order filed September 10, 2015 (ECF No. 27). 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: October 9, 2015
