United States District Court, D. Arizona
ORDER
Dominic W. Lanza United States District Judge
Pending
before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 14)
(“R&R”) from the Magistrate Judge screening
the amended complaint (Doc. 13) pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
1915A(a).
No
party has filed objections to the R&R and the time to
object has elapsed.[1]Accordingly, the Court accepts the R&R.
See, e.g., Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-50

require district court review of a magistrate's factual
or legal conclusions, under a de novo or any other
standard, when neither party objects to those
findings.”); Schmidt v. Johnstone, 263
F.Supp.2d 1219, 1226 (D. Ariz. 2003) (“[N]o review is
required of a magistrate judge's report and
recommendation unless objections are filed.”). See
also United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1221
(9th Cir. 2003) (“[T]he district judge must review the
magistrate judge's findings and recommendations de novo
if objection is made, but not otherwise.”).
