UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

BENNIE FREEMAN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

COUNTY OF SACRAMENTO, 

DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN 

ASSISTANCE, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:19-cv-02418-KJM-CKD PS 

ORDER 

 On December 12, 2019, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations (ECF 

No. 3), which were served on plaintiff and which contained notice that any objections to the 

findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen (14) days. No objections were 

filed. 

 The court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v. United States, 

602 F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are reviewed 

de novo. See Robbins v. Carey, 481 F.3d 1143, 1147 (9th Cir. 2007) (“[D]eterminations of law 

by the magistrate judge are reviewed de novo by both the district court and [the appellate] court 

. . . .”). Having reviewed the file, the court finds the findings and recommendations to be 

supported by the record and by the proper analysis.
