UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANDREW NILON, individually, and on

behalf of all others similarly situated,

Plaintiff,

CASE NO. 3:12-CV-00930-LAB (BGS)

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND

RECOMMENDATION (DOC. NO. 84)

RE: PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR

TERMINATING SANCTIONS (DOC.

NO. 74)

vs.

NATURAL-IMMUNOGENICS CORP.,

Defendant.

Nilon filed a motion for terminating sanctions, to hold Natural-Immunogenics' counsel

in contempt, and for monetary sanctions. (Docket no. 74.) Judge Skomal issued a report

and recommendation (the “R&R”) on Nilon's motion, recommending that it be denied. 

(Docket no. 84.)

Objections to the R&R were due on February 19, 2015. Nilon didn't file an objection. 

“The district judge must determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge’s disposition that

has been properly objected to.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). “A judge of 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). The “statute makes it 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).

The Court has nonetheless reviewed the R&R and agrees with its rationale and

conclusions. The R&R is ADOPTED. Nilon's motion for terminating sanctions, to hold

Natural-Immunogenics' counsel in contempt, and for monetary sanctions is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
