ORDER Magistrate Judge Aspey's R&R (Doc. 16 ) is accepted. Petitioner's Motion to Vacate, Set Aside or Correct Sentence (Doc. 1 ) is denied and dismissed with prejudice. The Clerk of Court shall terminate this action. Pursuant to Rule 11( a) of the Rules Governing Section 2255 Cases, in the event Movant files an appeal, the Court declines to issue a certificate of appealability because reasonable jurists would not find the Court's procedural ruling debatable.

ORDER
Respondent.
14
15
Pending before the Court are Petitioner’s Motion to Vacate, Set Aside or Correct
16
Sentence and United States Magistrate Judge Mark E. Aspey’s Report and
17
Recommendation (“R&R”). Docs. 1, 16. The R&R recommends that the Court deny and
18
dismiss the Motion. Doc. 16 at 12. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that they
19
had fourteen days to file objections to the R&R and that failure to file timely objections
20
could be considered a waiver of the right to obtain review of the R&R. Id. at 21 (citing
21
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 6, 72; United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d
22
1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003)).
23
The parties did not file objections, which relieves the Court of its obligation to
24
review the R&R. See Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149
25
(1985) (“[Section 636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is
26
not the subject of an objection.”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge must
27
determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge’s disposition that has been properly
28
objected to.”). The Court has nonetheless reviewed the R&R and finds that it is well-
1
taken. The Court will accept the R&R and deny and dismiss the Motion. See 28 U.S.C.
2
§ 636(b)(1) (stating that the district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in
3
part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3)
4
(“The district judge may accept, reject, or modify the recommended disposition; receive
5
further evidence; or return the matter to the magistrate judge with instructions.”).

Pursuant to Rule 11(a) of the Rules Governing Section 2255 Cases, in the
