RESPONDENT.

This matter is before the Court upon Benjamin Jenkins' Petition for Writ of
Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 [Docket No.1]. The matter was
submitted to United States Magistrate J. Gregory Wehrman for Report and
Recommendation.
Magistrate Judge Wehrman recommends that the Petition for Writ of
Habeas Corpus be dismissed [Docket No.2].
Petitioner has not filed objections to the report and recommendation and the
time for doing so has passed. After carefully considering the record, the Court
finds the report and recommendation well taken and shall adopt the same as and
for its own opinion.
Accordingly, IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED AND ADJUDGED,
(1) that the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation [Docket No.
2] is hereby APPROVED and ADOPTED as and for the Court's

opinion; and
(2)

that this action be DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE and

STRICKEN from the docket of this Court.

This 3rd day of June, 2014.
