UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

RAUL HERNANDEZ, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

RALPH DIAZ, 

Defendant. 

No. 2:18-cv-3265 KJM AC P 

ORDER 

 Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed this civil rights action seeking relief 

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

by 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 

 On May 28, 2019, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations, which were 

served on plaintiff and which contained notice to plaintiff that any objections to the findings and 

recommendations were to be filed within twenty-one days. Plaintiff has filed objections to the 

findings and recommendations. 

 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 reviewed the file, the court finds the 

findings generally to be supported by the record and by proper analysis, and the recommendations 

sound. In particular, the findings and recommendations remain sound, even accounting for 

plaintiff’s clarification that his claim rests in whole or in part on defendant’s declining to inform
