| 1 | Aldrich v. Bock Anchor | green | “an 'objection' that does nothing more than state a disagreement with a magistrate's suggested resolution, or simply summarizes what has been presented before, is not an 'objection' as that term is used in this context.” | 38 |
| 2 | Eloise HOWARD, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. SECRETARY OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Defendant-Appellee | green | “a general objection to the entirety of the magistrate's report has the same effects as would a failure to object.” | 20 |
| 3 | Miller v. Currie | green | “general objection to a magistrate's report, which fails to specify the issues of contention, does not satisfy the requirement that an objection be filed” | 9 |
