OBJECTION TO FINDING AND

RECOMMENDATION (Doc. 19) AND

DECLINING TO VACATE ORDER

DISMISSING ACTION AND THE

ENTRY OF JUDGMENT (Docs. 20

& 21)

On June 9, 2006, Judge Robert E. Coyle issued an order

adopting the recommendation of the Magistrate Judge to dismiss

the amended complaint without further leave to amend for failure

to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Judgment for

defendants was entered on June 9 

On June 9, 2006, plaintiff filed an "Objection Motion" in

which plaintiff objects to the recommendation. Because the

"Objection Motion" was not entered on the docket until June 12,

2006, Judge Coyle was not aware that plaintiff had timely filed

objections to the recommendation. On June 12, 2006, this action

was reassigned to Judge Wanger due to the senior status of Judge

Coyle. 

Plaintiff's objections to the recommendation do not provide

any basis for vacating Judge Coyle's order and the entry

judgment. The allegations in the amended complaint relate to

actions by the state court judges, the state prosecutor, and the

public defender in a criminal prosecution resulting in

plaintiff’s conviction in the Fresno County Superior Court. 

These claims are not cognizable in an action pursuant to 42

U.S.C. § 1983 for the reasons stated in the recommendation. 

Therefore, Judge Coyle’s order adopting the recommendation and

dismissing the action without leave to amend and the entry of

judgment for defendants will not be vacated. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 16, 2006 /s/ Oliver W. Wanger
