UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TYRONE ROGERS,

Plaintiff,

CASE NO. 11-CV-560-IEG (RBB)

ORDER:

1. ADOPTING REPORT AND

RECOMMENDATION;

[Doc No. 67]

2. DENYING MOTION FOR

DEFAULT JUDGMENT

[Doc. No. 44]

vs.

G.J. GIURBINO, et al.,

Defendants.

Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Ruben B. Brooks’s Report and Recommendation (“R

& R”), [Doc. No. 67], recommending that the Court deny Plaintiff’s motion for default judgment,

[Doc. No. 44]. The deadline for filing objections thereto passed October 19, 2012. [See Doc. No.

67 at 40.] 

The Court reviews de novo those portions of the R & R to which objections are made, and

may “accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the

magistrate judge.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). However, “[t]he statute makes it clear that the district

judge must review the magistrate judge’s findings and recommendations de novo if objection is

made, but not otherwise.” United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en

banc) (emphasis in original). “Neither the Constitution nor the statute requires a district judge to

review, de novo, findings and recommendations that the parties themselves accept as correct.” Id.

Here, the deadline for objections passed over a month ago without any objections being

filed, and thus the Court may adopt the R & R on that basis alone. See id. Having reviewed and

finding sound Magistrate Judge Brooks’s R & R, the Court approves and ADOPTS IN FULL the

R & R. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Thus, Plaintiff’s motion for default judgment is hereby

DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
