The Court is aware that Mr. Preston may have been released prior to the release of the Report and Recommendation
and that his release may have impacted his ability to receive the Report. Given that the Court believes that any
objection would be futile, the Court declines to consider whether these circumstances moot the habeas petition or
warrant additional time for responses.
