EDWIN CHAVEZ,

Defendants.

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil rights action. The matter

was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local

Rule 72-302. 

 On February 23, 2007, findings and recommendations were entered,

recommending dismissal of this action for Plainitff’s failure to exhaust his administrative

remedies prior to filing suit. Plaintiff was provided an opportunity to file objections within thirty

days. Plaintiff was granted an extension of time to file objections. Plaintiff has not filed

objections to the findings and recommendations.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636 (b)(1)(B) and Local Rule

73-305, this 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
