Plaintiff proceeded with a civil action concerning a

decision of the Commissioner of Social Security. On August 1,

2007, a judgment of dismissal was entered in the action. The

matter has been referred to the Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28

U.S.C.§ 636(b) and Local Rule 72-302(c)(15). Pending before the

Court is Plaintiff’s motion, filed on March 7, 2008, for

permission to appeal and/or for an extension of time to appeal. 

On March 24, 2008, the Magistrate Judge filed findings and a

recommendation that Plaintiff’s motion or request for permission

to appeal and/or for an extension of time to appeal be denied.

The findings and recommendation were served on all parties on

March 24, 2008, and contained notice that any objections to the

findings and recommendations were to be filed within thirty (30)

days of the date of service of the order. 

On April 18, 2008, Plaintiff filed objections to the

findings and recommendations; the undersigned has considered the

objections and has determined there is no need to modify the

findings and recommendations based on the points raised in the

objections. 

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636

(b)(1)(C) and Britt v. Simi Valley United School Dist., 708 F.2d

452, 454 (9 Cir. 1983), this Court has conducted a de novo th

review of the case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file,

the Court finds that the findings and recommendation are

supported by the record and proper analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The findings and recommendation filed March 24, 2008, are

ADOPTED IN FULL; and

2. Plaintiff’s motion or request for permission to appeal

and/or for an extension of time to appeal IS DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
