Case No. 4:11-cv-3902-TMP
ORDER DISMISSING THE PETITION
The magistrate judge filed his report and recommendation on April 25, 2012, recommending
dismissal of petitioner's 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for habeas corpus relief. On May 9, 2012, the
petitioner filed a document titled "Plaintiff's Answer to Magistraste Judge's Report and
Recommendation." (Doc. 20). Having now carefully considered de novo all the materials in the court
file, including the report and recommendation and the plaintiff's response, the court is of the opinion
that the magistrate judge's report is due to be ADOPTED and the recommendation ACCEPTED.
It is therefore ORDERED that the petition for habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
2254 in the above-styled cause be and hereby is DENIED and DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
Done this 18th day of May 2012.
L. Scott Coogler
United States District Judge
