ORDER

Magistrate Judge John V. Acosta issued Findings and Recommendation (#37) on August 25, 2017, in which he recommends this Court grant in part and deny in part the Motion (#8) to Dismiss filed by Defendants United Vanlines, LLC, Hilldrup Companies, Inc. d/b/a Hilldrup Moving & Storage, and Lonnie Orf. The matter is now before this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b).

Because no objections to the Magistrate Judge's Findings and Recommendation were timely filed, this Court is relieved of its obligation to review the record de novo. See Dawson v. Marshall, 561 F.3d 930, 932 (9th Cir. 2009). See also United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003)(en banc). Having reviewed the legal principles de novo, the Court does not find any error.

CONCLUSION

The Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge John V. Acosta's Findings and Recommendation (#37). Accordingly, the Court GRANTS in part and DENIES in part Defendants' Motion (#8) to Dismiss. The Court GRANTS Defendants' Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's claims against Defendant Orf for negligence and reckless disregard; Plaintiff's claims against Defendants United Vanlines and Hilldrup for negligent entrustment, training, and supervision; and Plaintiff's claim for vicarious liability. The Court, however, GRANTS Plaintiff leave to replead those claims by a date to be determined by the Magistrate Judge. The Court DENIES Defendants' Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's claims against Defendants United Vanlines and Hilldrup for negligent hiring and retention.

The Court returns this matter to the Magistrate Judge for further handling and to set a deadline for Plaintiff to file an Amended Complaint.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
