UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RANDY LAMAR BLACK,

Plaintiff,

v.

ALLRED, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:21-cv-02167-TLN-EFB

ORDER

Plaintiff Randy Lamar Black (“Plaintiff”), a federal inmate proceeding pro se, has filed 

this civil rights action seeking relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. 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 August 30, 2024, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein 

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

the findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. (ECF No. 67.) 

Defendants Allred and B. Birch (collectively, “Defendants”) filed objections on September 11, 

2024. (ECF No. 68.)

The Court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. 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).
