IT IS THEREFORE RECOMMENDED that petitioner's "Notice

[Motion] Filing Writ of Mandamus Against State of Arizona to [sic]

This Report and Recommendation is not an order that is

immediately appealable to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Any

notice of appeal filed pursuant to Rule 4(a)(1), Federal Rules of

Appellate Procedure, should not be filed until entry of the

district court's order and judgment. The parties shall have ten

(10) days from the date of service of this Report and

Recommendation to file specific written objections with the Court. 

Thereafter, the parties shall have ten (10) days within which to

file a response to the objections. Failure to timely file

objections to the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation

will result in a waiver of de novo review of the factual findings

and may result in the acceptance of the Report and Recommendation

by the district court without further review. See United States

v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003).

DATED this 7th day of November, 2005.
