PETITIONER
CASE NO. 1:13-CV-1086
RAY HOBBS, Director,
Arkansas Department of Corrections
RESPONDENT
ORDER
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation filed May 2, 2014, by the Honorable
Barry A. Bryant, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas. (ECF No. 12).
Judge Bryant recommends that Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of a Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 2254 (ECF No. 1) be dismissed with prejudice as time barred. Petitioner has filed
objections to the Report and Recommendation. (ECF No. 13).
After reviewing the record de novo, the Court adopts Judge Bryant’s Report and
Recommendation as its own. Petitioner’s objections to the Report and Recommendation make the
same arguments found in Petitioner’s reply in support of his Petition. (ECF No. 10). These
arguments have been fully and adequately addressed in Judge Bryant’s Report and Recommendation.
Accordingly, the Court overrules Petitioner’s objections and adopts Judge Bryant’s Report and
Recommendation. For the reasons stated herein and above, as well as those contained in the Report
and Recommendation, Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of a Habeas Corpus (ECF No. 1) is hereby
DENIED WITH PREJUDICE.
IT IS SO ORDERED, this 11th day of August, 2014.
