Order Adopting Magistrate Judge’s Report And Recommendation
This case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Patrick A.
White, consistent with Administrative Order 2003-19 of this Court, for a ruling
on all pre-trial, nondispositive matters and for a report and recommendation
on any dispositive matters. On April 5, 2017, Judge White issued a report,
recommending that, the Court deny the petition for writ of habeas corpus and
dismiss the case. (Report of Magistrate, ECF No. 14.) The Petitioner has not
filed objections to the report, and the time to do so has passed.
The Court has considered Judge White’s report, the record, and the
relevant legal authorities. The Court finds Judge White’s report and
recommendation cogent and compelling. The Court affirms and adopts Judge
White’s report and recommendation (ECF No. 14). The Court denies the
petition for writ of habeas corpus (ECF No. 1). The Court does not issue a
certificate of appealability. Finally, the Court directs the Clerk to close this
case.
Done and ordered, at Miami, Florida, on May 26, 2017.
