filed amended objections that were also timely. Plaintiff filed a timely reply. Without leave of

court, and more than a month after the reply was filed, the defendant filed a document that

purports to be objections to plaintiff’s reply.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 72-

304, this court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the
