ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS ENFORCING I.R.S. SUMMONS

LAWRENCE J. O'NEILL, District Judge

The United States seeks enforcement of an I.R.S. summons issued by investigating Revenue Officer David M. Lopez. The matter was placed before United States Magistrate Judge Barbara A. McAuliffe under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302(c)(9). On November 20, 2012, Judge McAuliffe issued an Order to Show Cause, ordering the respondent, Keith E. Guy to show cause why the I.R.S. summons issued to him on July 27, 2012, should not be enforced. The Petition, Points and Authorities, and Order to Show Cause were served upon the respondent in conformity with Fed. R. Civ. P. 4. Respondent did not file an opposition to enforcement under paragraph 7 on page 3 of the Order to Show Cause.

At the show-cause hearing held before Judge McAuliffe on November 9, 2012, respondent appeared for himself and did not oppose the enforcement of the I.R.S. summons. He agreed to appear and comply on December 31, 2012, at 10:30 a.m., at the I.R.S. offices at 2525 Capitol Street, Suite 206, Fresno, California 93721-2227. On November 20, 2012, Judge McAuliffe filed Findings and Recommendations, finding that the requirements for summons enforcement had been satisfied and ordering respondent to appear at the I.R.S. offices at 2525 Capitol Street, Suite 206, Fresno, California 93721-2227 as agreed. Neither side filed objections to the Magistrate Judge's findings and recommendations.

This Court reviewed the entire record de novo under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). This Court is satisfied that the Magistrate Judge's findings and recommendations are supported by the record and by proper analysis, and that the request and unopposed summons enforcement should be granted. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED as follows:

1. The Magistrate Judge's Findings and Recommendations Re: I.R.S. Summons Enforcement, filed November 20, 2012, are ADOPTED IN FULL.

2. The I.R.S. summons issued to respondent, Keith E. Guy is to be ENFORCED.

3. Respondent, Keith E. Guy is ORDERED to appear at the I.R.S. offices at 2525 Capitol Street, Suite 206, Fresno, California 93721-2227, before Revenue Officer David M. Lopez, or his designated representative, on the 21st day after the issuance of this order, or at a time and date set in writing by Revenue Officer David Lopez, or at a time and date respondent agrees to, then and there to be sworn, to give testimony, and to produce for examining and copying the books, checks, records, papers and other data demanded by the summons, the examination to continue from day to day until completed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
