OPINION AND ORDER ADOPTING
MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
This matter comes before the Court on the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation
[dkt 23], in which the Magistrate Judge recommends that the Court deny Petitioner’s application for
the writ of habeas corpus and deny Petitioner a certificate of appealability [dkt 1]. No objections
were filed to the Magistrate’s Report and Recommendation, and the time period in which to do so
has elapsed. See Fed. R. Civ. P 72(b)(2).
The Court has thoroughly reviewed the court file and the Report and Recommendation. As
a result of that review, the Court ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation and enters it as the
findings and conclusions of this Court.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Petitioner’s application for the writ of habeas
corpus and certificate of appealability [dkt 1] is DENIED and this cause of action is DISMISSED
WITH PREJUDICE.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
