IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ROBERT WOOTEN,

Plaintiff, No. CIV-S-06-2789 FCD EFB PS

vs.

THE CITY OF STOCKTON,

Defendant. ORDER

__________________________________/

On January 12, 2007, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations

herein which were served on plaintiff and which contained notice that any objections to the

findings and recommendations were to be filed within ten days. Plaintiff filed objections on

January 22, 2007, 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.
