UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

_________________________________

SERGEY NOVITSKIY, 

 Plaintiff - Appellant,

v.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 

 Defendant - Appellee.

No. 16-1456

(D.C. No. 1:15-CV-01437-PAB-MEH)

(D. Colo.)

ORDER

_________________________________

Before HARTZ, GORSUCH, and McHUGH, Circuit Judges.

_________________________________

The plaintiff has waived the right to appellate review of the district court dismissal 

because he failed to file objections to the magistrate’s report and recommendation. 

Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. 

Failure to properly object to a magistrate judge’s recommendation results in 

waiver of appellate review of both factual and legal issues. Allman v. Colvin, 813 F.3d 

1326, 1329-30 (10th Cir. 2016) (citations and quotations omitted). See also Wirsching v. 

Colorado, 360 F.3d 1191, 1197 (10th Cir. 2004). This rule applies to pro se parties 

where, as here, they were “properly informed of the consequences of [their] failure to 

object.” Fottler v. United States, 73 F.3d 1064, 1065 (10th Cir. 1996); Moore v. United 

States, 950 F.2d 656, 659 (10th Cir. 1991).
