Case No. 1:18-cv-00653-LSC-JHE

MEMORANDUM OPINION
On July 13, 2021, the magistrate judge entered a report and recommendation
(“R&R”), recommending that the petition for writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 2254 be denied as time-barred. (Doc. 17). The magistrate judge further
recommended that a certificate of appealability be denied. (Doc. 17). Although the
parties were advised of their right to file specific written objections within fourteen
days, the court received no objections.
After careful consideration of the record in this case and the magistrate judge’s
report, the court ADOPTS the report of the magistrate judge and ACCEPTS his
recommendation. Accordingly, the petition for writ of habeas corpus is due to be
DENIED and this action DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. A certificate of
appealability is due to be DENIED.

A Final Judgment will be entered.
DONE and ORDERED on August 11, 2021.
