Before the Court are Petitioner Martrail Williams’ Petition for Writ of Habeas
17
Corpus and United States Magistrate Judge Bridget S. Bade’s Report and
18
Recommendation (“R&R”). (Docs. 1, 15.) The R&R recommends that the Court deny
19
the Petition. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that they had fourteen days to file
20
objections to the R&R and that failure to file timely objections could be considered a
21
waiver of the right to obtain review of the R&R. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72; United States v.
22
Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003). Petitioner did not file objections,
23
which relieves the Court of its obligation to review the R&R. See Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d
24
at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3). The Court
25
nonetheless has reviewed the R&R and finds that it is well-taken. The Court will accept
26
the R&R and deny the Petition. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3).

IT IS ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Bade’s R&R (Doc. 15) is ACCEPTED.
Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus is DENIED.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a Certificate of Appealability and leave to
