AMENDED ORDER AFFIRMING THE
RECOMMENDED DECISION OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
The United States Magistrate Judge filed with the Court on October 5, 2011 her Recommended
Decision. The Plaintiff filed his objections to the Recommended Decision on November 2, 2011. I have
reviewed and considered the Magistrate Judge's Recommended Decision, together with the entire
record; I have made a de novo determination of all matters adjudicated by the Magistrate Judge's
Recommended Decision; and I concur with the recommendations of the United States Magistrate Judge
for the reasons set forth in her Recommended Decision, and determine that no further proceeding is
necessary.
1. It is therefore ORDERED that the Recommended Decision of the Magistrate Judge is hereby
AFFIRMED.
2. It is further ORDERED that the Petitioner’s 28 U.S.C. § 2254 Petition (Docket #1) be and
hereby is DENIED with prejudice.
3. It is further ORDERED that no certificate of appealability should issue in the event the
Plaintiff files a notice of appeal because there is no substantial showing of the denial of a
constitutional right within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2).
SO ORDERED.
