IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

THOMAS EUGENE MOORE, No. 2:04-cv-1895 MCE EFB PS

Plaintiff,

vs. ORDER

THE AMERICAN TOBACCO

COMPANY, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

__________________________________/

On September 29, 2006, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein

which were served on the parties and which contained notice that any objections to the findings

and recommendations were to be filed within ten days. On December 11, 2006, after being

granted an extension of time, plaintiff filed objections, and they were considered by the

undersigned.

This court reviews de novo those portions of the proposed findings of fact to which

objection has been made. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore

Business Machines, 656 F.2d 1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981), cert. denied, 455 U.S. 920 (1982). As

to any portion of the proposed findings of fact to which no objection has been made, the court

assumes its correctness and decides the motions on the applicable law.

See Orand v. United States, 602 F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s

conclusions of law are reviewed de novo. See Britt v. Simi Valley Unified School Dist., 708

F.2d 452, 454 (9th Cir. 1983).

The court has reviewed the applicable legal standards and, good cause appearing,

concludes that it is appropriate to adopt the proposed Findings and Recommendations in full. 

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that:

1. The proposed Findings and Recommendations filed September 29, 2006, are

ADOPTED;

2. The remaining defendants are dismissed from this action without prejudice; and

3. The Clerk is directed to close the case.

DATED: December 20, 2006
