UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff Bob Bejarano is appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in this civil rights action 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 

On March 21, 2014, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a 

cognizable claim for relief. Plaintiff filed an opposition on June 20, 2014. The matter was referred to 

a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

On July 30, 2014, the Magistrate Judge held a telephonic hearing and heard oral argument by 

both parties on Defendants’ motion to dismiss.

On August 1, 2014, the Magistrate Judge issued Findings and Recommendations to grant in 

part and deny in part Defendants’ motion to dismiss. The Magistrate Judge recommended specifically 

that Plaintiff’s official capacity claim against Defendant Warden Allison be granted and denied in all 

other respects. The Findings and Recommendations contained notice to the parties that objections 

were to filed within thirty days.
