UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RUBEN FIGUEROA,

Plaintiff,

v.

KENNETH CLARK, Warden at California 

State Prison, Corcoran, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 19-cv-00968-DAD-BAM (PC)

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS AND DENYING 

PLAINTIFF’S MOTIONS FOR A 

PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION

(Doc. Nos. 13, 14, 15)

Plaintiff Ruben Figueroa is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in 

this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This matter was referred to a United States 

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

On February 6, 2020, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and recommendation, 

recommending that plaintiff’s two motions for preliminary injunction be denied for lack of 

jurisdiction. (Doc. Nos. 13, 14, 15.) The findings and recommendation were served on plaintiff 

and contained notice that any objections thereto were to be filed within fourteen (14) days after 

service. (Doc. No. 15 at 3.) No objections have been filed and the time in which to do so has 

now passed.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), the court has conducted a 

de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the court concludes that

the findings and recommendations are supported by the record and by proper analysis.

1. The findings and recommendation issued on February 6, 2020, (Doc. No. 15), are

IT IS SO ORDERED.
