ORDER

On April 25, 2006 Petitioner filed a complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (Doc. #1).

On August 29, 2006 Magistrate Judge Velasco issued a Report and Recommendation

("R&R") recommending that the case be dismissed for failure to prosecute (Doc. #5). No

objections were filed by either party.

The Court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or

recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). It is "clear that the

district judge must review the magistrate judge's findings and recommendations de novo if

objection is made, but not otherwise." United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121

(9th Cir. 2003) (en banc) (emphasis in original); Schmidt v. Johnstone, 263 F. Supp. 2d 1219,

1126 (D. Ariz. 2003) ("Following Reyna-Tapia, this Court concludes that de novo review of

factual and legal issues is required if objections are made, 'but not otherwise."'). District

courts are not required to conduct "any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject

of an objection." Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). No objection having been

made, the Court will adopt the R&R in full. 

Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (Doc. #5) is ADOPTED and

that the case be DISMISSED.

DATED this 18th day of September, 2006.
