UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SEAN JEFFREY RICHSON-BEY, 

Plaintiff,

v.

R. MORENO, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:21-cv-01294-AWI-SAB (PC)

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS, GRANTING IN 

PART AND DENYING IN PART 

DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO DISMISS

(Doc. Nos. 28, 32)

Plaintiff Sean Jeffrey Richson-Bey is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil 

rights action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This matter was referred to a United States 

magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Eastern District of California Local 

Rule 302.

On January 12, 2023, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and 

recommendations, recommending defendants’ motion to dismiss be granted in part and denied in 

part. Doc. No. 32. The findings and recommendations were served on the parties and contained 

notice that objections were due within twenty-one days. Id. at 7. No objections were filed and 

the time to do so has passed. 

Consistent with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), this Court has conducted a de novo review of 

this case. Having carefully reviewed the file, the Court concludes the findings and 

recommendations are supported by the record and by proper analysis.
