PAUPERIS STATUS
14
Pending before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of
15
Magistrate Judge Steven P. Logan (Doc. 22) regarding petitioner’s Petition for Writ of
16
Habeas Corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (Doc. 1). The R&R recommends that
17
the Petition be denied and dismissed with prejudice. The Magistrate Judge advised the
18
parties that they had fourteen days to file objections to the R&R. (R&R at P. 6 ln. 23
19
(citing 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)). Petitioner filed objections on October 11, 2013 (Doc. 23).
20
The Court has considered the objections and reviewed the Report and
21
Recommendation de novo. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (stating that
22
the court must make a de novo determination of those portions of the Report and
23
Recommendation to which specific objections are made). The Court agrees with the
24
Magistrate Judge’s determinations, accepts the recommended decision within the
25
meaning of Rule 72(b), Fed. R. Civ. P., and overrules Petitioner’s objections. See 28
26
U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (stating that the district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole
27
or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate”).

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of the
Magistrate Judge (Doc. 22) is accepted.
3
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court enter judgment denying
4
and dismissing petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
5
§ 2254 (Doc. 1) with prejudice. The Clerk shall terminate this action.
6
Having considered the issuance of a Certificate of Appealability from the order
7
denying Petitioner’s Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, a Certificate of Appealability
8
and leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal are denied because Petitioner has not
9
made a substantial showing that the denial of a constitutional right has been made.
