ORDER
After due and proper consideration of the issues raised, and there
having been no objections filed, the Report and Recommendation of the
Magistrate Judge made under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), is ADOPTED as the
opinion of this Court.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Petitioner Porter Anderson Jr.’s
petition for habeas corpus relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (Doc. 5) be
DISMISSED with prejudice. It is further ORDERED that Anderson is
DENIED a Certificate of Appealability in relation to this final adverse order.
Finally, the Court certifies that any appeal of this order would be without
merit and therefore not taken in good faith. Thus, Anderson is not entitled
proceed in forma pauperis on appeal.
DONE and ORDERED this the 4th day of October, 2017.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
