Defendant. 1188 This matter was referred to a United States Magistrate Judge as provided by Local Rule 1199 302(c)(19). On February 18, 2022, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations, which 2200 were served on plaintiff. The court has reviewed the file and finds the findings and recommendations 2211 to be supported by the record and by the magistrate judge’s analysis. 2222 The court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v. United States, 602 F.2d 2233 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are reviewed de novo. See 2244 Robbins v. Carey, 481 F.3d 1143, 1147 (9th Cir. 2007) (“[D]eterminations of law by the magistrate 2255 judge are reviewed de novo by both the district court and [the appellate] court . . . .”). Having reviewed 2266 the file, the court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and by the 2277 proper analysis. 1 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 2 1. The findings and recommendations filed February 18, 2022 (ECF No. 16) are adopted in 3 || full; 4 2. Ronald Hilliard, Helen Carlos, and the Citibank Account Holder are held in default; 5 3. The United States’ motion for default judgment and final judgment of forfeiture (ECF 6 || No. 15) is granted; 7 4. A judgment by default is entered against any right, title, or interest of potential claimants 8 || Ronald Hilliard, Helen Carlos, and the Citibank Account Holder in the defendant funds referenced in Q || the above caption; 10 5. Final judgment is entered, forfeiting all right, title, and interest in the defendant funds to 11 || the United States, to be disposed of according to law; and 12 6. This case is closed. 13 || DATED: June 28, 2022.
