 On January 14, 2020, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations, which 

were served on petitioner and which contained notice to petitioner that any objections to the 

findings and recommendations were to be filed within twenty-one days. ECF No. 4. Petitioner

 In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 304, this 

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

finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.
