IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA
Yongfeng Li,
Petitioner,
v.
Todd M Lyons, et al.,
Respondents.
No. CV-26-01504-PHX-MTL
ORDER
Before the Court is Petitioner Yongfeng Li’s Petition (Doc. 1) and United States
Magistrate Judge Deborah M. Fine’s Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) (Doc. 15).
The R&R recommends that the Court deny and dismiss the petition. The Magistrate Judge
advised the parties that they had fourteen days to file objections to the R&R and that failure
to file timely objections could be considered a waiver of the right to obtain review of the
R&R. See United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003). Neither
party filed objections, which relieves the Court of its obligation to review the R&R. See
Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985) (“[Section
636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of
an objection.”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge must determine de novo any
part of the magistrate judge’s disposition that has been properly objected to.”). The Court
has nonetheless reviewed the R&R and finds that it is well-taken. The Court will accept
the R&R in its entirety. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (stating that the district court “may
accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the

magistrate”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge may accept, reject, or modify the
recommended disposition; receive further evidence; or return the matter to the magistrate
judge with instructions.”).
IT IS ORDERED that the R&R (Doc. 15) is ACCEPTED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED Petitioner’s Petition (Doc. 1) is DENIED and
DISMISSED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED directing the Clerk of the Court to enter judgment
accordingly and terminate this case.
Dated this 13th day of May, 2026.
