ORDER

Pending before the Court is pro se Plaintiff’s prisoner civil rights complaint (Doc.1),

filed by Christopher A. Valdez. The case was referred to Magistrate Judge Hector C.

Estrada. Subsequent to Plaintiff’s failure to comply with the Court’s Order of March 26,

2008, which Plaintiff to return the completed service packet to the Court, Magistrate Judge

Estrada filed a Report and Recommendation on the matter. To date, no objections have been

filed (Doc.7.)

STANDARD OF REVIEW

The Court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or

recommendations made by the magistrate.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C); see Baxter v. Sullivan,

923 F.2d 1391, 1394 (9th Cir. 1991). Parties have ten days from the service of a copy of the

Magistrate's recommendation within which to file specific written objections to the Court.

28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 6, 72. Failure to object to a Magistrate Judge’s

recommendation relieves the Court of conducting de novo review of the Magistrate Judge’s

factual findings and waives all objections to those findings on appeal. See Turner v. Duncan,

158 F.3d 449, 455 (9th Cir. 1998). A failure to object to a Magistrate Judge’s conclusion “is

a factor to be weighed in considering the propriety of finding waiver of an issue on appeal.”

Turner v. Duncan, 158 F.3d 449, 455 (9th Cir. 1998).

Objections having been made by any party thereto, the Court hereby incorporates and adopts

the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation.

 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation

of Magistrate Judge Hector C. Estrada (Doc. 7).

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this action is DISMISSED without prejudice

pursuant to Rule 41(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for failure to prosecute.
