UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LAKEITH LEROY MCCOY,

Plaintiff,

v.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF 

CORRECTIONS AND 

REHABILITATION et al.,

Defendants.

No. 1:16-cv-00098-DAD-BAM

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

REMANDING ACTION TO THE KERN 

COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT

(Doc Nos. 11, 14)

Plaintiff Lakeith Leroy McCoy is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this action. 

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 August 15, 2016, the assigned magistrate judge filed findings and 

recommendations, recommending that this action be remanded to Kern County Superior Court. 

(Doc. No. 14.) The findings and recommendations were served on plaintiff and contained notice 

that objections were to be filed within fourteen days. (Id.) No objections to the findings and 

recommendations have been filed. 

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 finds the findings 

and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.
