ETUATE SEKONA, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

F. CUSTINO, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:16-CV-0517-JAM-DMC-P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, a prisoner proceeding pro se, brings this civil rights action pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. § 1983. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 

Eastern District of California local rules. 

 On September 10, 2020, the Magistrate Judge filed findings and recommendations 

herein which were served on the parties and which contained notice that the parties may file 

objections within the time specified therein. Timely objections to the findings and 

recommendations have been filed. 

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

304(f), 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 by 

proper analysis.
