Warden Graber,
ORDER
13
Respondent.
14
15
Petitioner Daniel Lee Mellinger has filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus
16
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Doc. 1. United States Magistrate Judge Michelle Burns
17
has issued a report and recommendation that the petition be denied (“R&R”). Doc. 31.
18
Petitioner has filed a document titled “No Objection to the R&R, with Corrections to
19
Error in some Facts.” Doc. 32. Petitioner states: “Petitioner has no real objection to the
20
conclusions reached in the R&R because he understands that the 9th Circuit’s law on the
21
235(b)(3) issue goes against him. . . . That is why he asked months ago to have this Court
22
deny his habeas as long as he can appeal and try to show the 9th Circuit the error of it’s
23
conclusions.” Id. at 1.1
24
Because no objection has been filed, the Court is relieved of any obligation to
25
review the R&R. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3); Thomas v. Arn,

Although Petitioner later makes assertions that appear to disagree with Judge
Burns’ conclusion, he simply restates arguments made before Judge Burns without
explaining why her ruling on those arguments is incorrect. Petitioner also points out
some alleged factual errors that do not affect the ruling in this case.
