Defendants.

No. 1:15-cv-00768-DAD-HBK (PC)

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS

(Doc. Nos. 145, 146)

Plaintiff LaKeith McCoy is proceeding in forma pauperis in this civil rights action 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983.1 This action was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge 

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

On April 9, 2021, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations 

recommending that plaintiff’s motion for emergency injunctive relief (Doc. No. 145) be denied. 

(Doc. No. 146.) The findings and recommendations were served on plaintiff and contained notice 

that objections were to be filed within thirty (30) days. (Id. at 5–6.) No objections have been 

filed, and the deadline to do so has now passed.

 Plaintiff was also proceeding pro se at the time his motion for emergency injunctive relief was 

filed. On March 29, 2021, plaintiff filed a motion for the appointment of counsel. (Doc. No. 

144.) On April 22, 2021, the magistrate judge granted that motion and appointed counsel on 

behalf of plaintiff for the limited purpose of trial and the May 17, 2021 trial setting hearing.
