UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARY DEAN REED,

Plaintiff,

v.

KERN COUNT DEPT. 

OF COURT, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

CASE NO. 1:06-cv-01600-OWW-SMS PC

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND

RECOMMENDATIONS, AND DISMISSING

ACTION, WITHOUT PREJUDICE, FOR

FAILURE TO OBEY A COURT ORDER

(Docs. 8 and 10)

Plaintiff Mary Dean Reed (“plaintiff”) is a prisoner proceeding pro se in this civil action.

The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B)

and Local Rule 72-302.

On February 23, 2007, the Magistrate Judge filed a Finding and Recommendation

recommending dismissal of this action based on plaintiff’s failure to obey the Court’s order to pay

the filing fee in full or file a completed application to proceed in forma pauperis. The Finding and

Recommendation was served on plaintiff and contained notice to plaintiff that any Objection must

be filed within thirty days. Plaintiff filed Objections on March 5, 2007, and March 14, 2007.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 73-305, this

Court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the

Court finds the Findings andRecommendations to be supported by the record and by proper analysis.

In her first Objection, plaintiff asserts that she sent the Court seventeen original songs for

payment of the filing fee. (Doc. 12, pgs.1-2.) In her second Objection, plaintiff asserts that she sent

forty-one or fifty-one original songs. (Doc. 13, pgs. 1-2.) These statements, along with others set 1

forth in the Objections, indicate that plaintiff is delusional to some extent. The filing fee may not

be paid via the submission of songs. Plaintiff has set forth no grounds which would support setting

aside the Finding and Recommendation. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Findings and Recommendations, filed February 23, 2007, is adopted in full; and

2. This action is dismissed, without prejudice, for failure to obey the Court’s order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
