Defendants.

Plaintiff subscribes. 

Plaintiff, currently housed at Salinas Valley State Prison, seeks an order enjoining

individuals at Salinas Valley State Prison from interfering with the processing of his mail.

this action. There are no defendants in this action who are employed by the Department of

Corrections and Rehabilitation at Salinas Valley State Prison. The court must have personal

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that Plaintiff’s motion for injunctive

relief be denied.

These findings and recommendations are submitted to the United States District Judge

assigned to the case, pursuant to the provisions of Title 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Within thirty days

after being served with these findings and recommendations, any party may file written

objections with the court and serve a copy on all parties. Such a document should be captioned

“Objections to Magistrate Judge’s Findings and Recommendations.” Any reply to the objections

shall be served and filed within ten days after service of the objections. The parties are advised

findings of fact. See Turner v. Duncan, 158 F.3d 449, 455 (9 Cir. 1998). Failure to file th

objections within the specified time may waive the right to appeal the District Court’s order.
