UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES RAY TAYLOR,

Plaintiff,

v.

RALPH DIAZ, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 1:20-cv-00225-AWI-JLT (PC)

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS AND DENYING 

MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RESTRAINING 

ORDER OR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION

(Docs. 3, 7)

Plaintiff James Ray Taylor is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in 

this civil rights action. This matter was referred to a United States magistrate judge pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

On February 24, 2020, the assigned magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations, 

recommending that Plaintiff’s motion for a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary 

injunction (Doc. 3) be denied. (Doc. 7.) The magistrate judge found that Plaintiff’s motion is 

moot in light of Plaintiff’s transfer to a different prison. (Id. at 3.) The judge further found that 

Plaintiff does not demonstrate a specific threat of harm. (Id. at 3-4.) The findings and 

recommendations were served on Plaintiff and provided him 14 days to file objections thereto. 

(Id. at 4.) Plaintiff has not filed any objections and the time to do so has passed.

In accordance with the provisions of 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 proper analysis.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
