ORDER

After an independent and de novo review of the entire
record,

the undersigned concurs with the Magistrate Judge's

Report and Recommendation, dkt. no. 16, to which Petitioner
filed Objections, dkt. no. 20.

In his Objections,

contends that the Court should excuse his

Petitioner

failure to exhaust his

administrative remedies because he will suffer ''irreparable
harm."

Dkt. No. 20, p.

4.

However,

the Magistrate Judge

correctly rejected this argument in the Report and

Recommendation.

U.S.

Dkt. No. 16 p. 8

(citing Ross v. Blake,

, 136 S. Ct. 1850, 1856-58 (June 6, 2016)).
Therefore, the Court OVERRULES Petitioner's Objections and

ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation as the
opinion of the Court.
