UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANGEL RODRIGUEZ,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Defendant.

No. 1:19-cv-00001-DAD-SAB (PC)

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS, DENYING 

MOTION TO AMEND

(Doc. Nos. 25, 26)

Plaintiff Angel Rodriguez is a federal prisoner appearing pro se and in forma pauperis in 

this civil rights action brought pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 

1346(b), 2674. This matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 

On November 15, 2019, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and 

recommendations, recommending that plaintiff’s motion to amend his complaint be denied on the 

grounds that any such amendment would be futile. (Doc. No. 26.) The findings and 

recommendations were served on plaintiff by mail at his address of record and contained notice 

that any objections thereto must be filed within fourteen (14) days of service of the order. (Id. at 

3.) No objections have been filed and the time in which to do so has now passed.

are adopted in full; and 

2. Plaintiff’s motion to amend (Doc. No. 25) is denied. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
