12 Plaintiff, ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS AND DISMISSING
13 v. CERTAIN CLAIMS AND DEFENDANTS
14 JEFF MACOMBER, et al., (Doc. 12)
15 Defendants.
16
17 Plaintiff is proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis in this action filed pursuant to 42
18 U.S.C. § 1983. This matter was referred to a United States magistrate judge pursuant to 28
19 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.
20 On April 20, 2026, the assigned magistrate judge issued findings and recommendations,
21 recommending that all claims be dismissed, except for Plaintiff’s retaliation claim against
22 Defendants Kimberly Miscia, Wendy Weiss, and Paula Michelini. (Doc. 12.) The findings and
23 recommendations were served on Plaintiff, advised him that any objections were due within 14
24 days, and warned him that failure to timely file objections may result in the waiver of rights on
25 appeal. (Id. at 2, citing Wilkerson v. Wheeler, 772 F.3d 834, 838–39 (9th Cir. 2014).) Plaintiff
26 did not file objections. Moreover, Plaintiff previously advised the Court that he wanted to
27 proceed only with his retaliation claim against Defendants Kimberly Miscia, Wendy Weiss, and
28
1 | Paula Michelini. (Doc. 10.)
2 According to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), this Court has conducted a de novo review of this
3 | case. After carefully reviewing the entire file, the Court concludes the findings and
4 || recommendations are supported by the record and proper analysis.
5 Accordingly, the Court ORDERS:
6 1. The findings and recommendations issued on April 20, 2026, (Doc. 12), are
7 ADOPTED IN FULL.
8 2. All claims are DISMISSED, except for Plaintiffs retaliation claim against
9 Defendants Kimberly Miscia, Wendy Weiss, and Paula Michelini.
