IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA

Tiana Brooke Blazer,

Plaintiff,

v. 

Desert Run Transportation LLC, et al.,

Defendants.

No. CV-24-01326-PHX-MTM

ORDER 

This matter was assigned to Magistrate Judge Michael T. Morrissey. (Doc. 5). On

December 20, 2024, the Magistrate Judge filed a Report and Recommendation with this 

Court.1(Doc. 27). The Magistrate Judge has recommended that Plaintiff’s Motions for 

Default Judgment, (Docs. 16, 26), be granted. To date, no objections have been filed.

1 This case is assigned to a Magistrate Judge. However, not all parties have 

consented to the jurisdiction of the Magistrate Judge. Thus, the matter is before this Court 

pursuant to General Order 21-25, which states in relevant part: 

When a United States Magistrate Judge to whom a civil action has been 

assigned pursuant to Local Rule 3.7(a)(1) considers dismissal to be 

appropriate but lacks the jurisdiction to do so under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1) 

due to incomplete status of election by the parties to consent or not consent 

to the full authority of the Magistrate Judge, 

IT IS ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge will prepare a Report and 

Recommendation for the Chief United States District Judge or designee.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED designating the following District Court 

Judges to review and, if deemed suitable, to sign the order of dismissal on 

my behalf: 

Phoenix/Prescott: Senior United States District Judge Stephen M. 

McNamee

STANDARD OF REVIEW

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

recommendations made by the magistrate.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C); see Baxter v. 

Sullivan, 923 F.2d 1391, 1394 (9th Cir. 1991). Parties have fourteen days from the 

service of a copy of the Magistrate’s recommendation within which to file specific 

written objections to the Court. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 6, 72. Failure to 

object to a Magistrate Judge’s recommendation relieves the Court of conducting de novo

review of the Magistrate Judge’s factual findings and waives all objections to those 

findings on appeal. See Turner v. Duncan, 158 F.3d 449, 455 (9th Cir. 1998). A failure to 

object to a Magistrate Judge’s conclusion “is a factor to be weighed in considering the 

propriety of finding waiver of an issue on appeal.” Id.

DISCUSSION

Having reviewed the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, and no 

Objections having been made by any party thereto, the Court hereby incorporates and 

adopts the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation.

CONCLUSION

Accordingly, for the reasons set forth,

IT IS ORDERED adopting the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate 

Judge. (Doc. 27).

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED granting Plaintiff’s Motions for Default 

Judgment. (Docs. 16, 26).

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff is awarded $1,350.00 plus postjudgment interest at the applicable statutory rate. Of that amount, $1,291.50 in trebled 

unpaid minimum wages is awarded jointly and severally against all Defendants: 

Defendants Desert Run Transportation LLC, Crisse Jordan, Ryan R. Witte, and Jane Doe 

Witte. The remaining $58.50 in unpaid non-minimum wages is awarded against 

Defendant Desert Run Transportation.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED directing the Clerk of Court to enter judgment
