Case No. 1:12-cv-01244-LJO-BAM HC

Petitioner is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis with a petition for writ
of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The Court referred the matter to the Magistrate
Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and Local Rules 302 and 304.
On January 13, 2015, the Magistrate Judge filed findings and recommendations in which she
recommended that the Court deny Petitioner's motion for a stay to exhaust additional state claims
and order Petitioner to file a traverse to Respondent's answer filed November 8, 2013 (Doc. 31).
The findings and recommendations, which were served on all parties, provided that objections could
be served within thirty days and replies within fourteen days after the filing of any objections.
Despite multiple orders granting Petitioner extensions of time to file objections, neither party has
filed objections.
In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), having carefully reviewed the
entire file de novo and considered Petitioner's objections, the Court finds that the findings and
recommendations are supported by the record and proper analysis.
1

Accordingly, the Court hereby ORDERS adoption of the findings and recommendations that

the Court deny Petitioner's motion for a stay to permit exhaustion of additional state claims.

3

Petitioner is DIRECTED to file his traverse, if any, no later than forty-five days from the date of this

order.
