UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TIMOTHY HOWARD,

Plaintiff,

v.

D. L. DeAZEVEDO, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:11-cv-00101-AWI-SKO PC 

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND

RECOMMENDATIONS AND DENYING

DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO DISMISS,

WITH PREJUDICE

(Docs. 23 and 28)

Plaintiff TimothyHoward, a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed this

civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 on January 20, 2011. The matter was referred to a

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

On July 13, 2012, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim pursuant

to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), and on November 29, 2012, the Magistrate Judge issued

findings and recommendations recommending the motion be denied, with prejudice. The parties

were granted fifteen days within which to file objections, but no objections were filed and on

December 7, 2012, Defendants filed their answer to Plaintiff’s amended complaint.

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), the 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 by proper analysis. 

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Court adopts the findings and recommendations filed on November 29, 2012,

in full; and

2. Defendants’ motion to dismiss, filed on July 13, 2012, is DENIED. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: January 7, 2013
