ORDER APPROVING AND ADOPTING
MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
On December 4, 2014, Magistrate Judge Timothy P. Greeley issued a Report and
Recommendation (“R&R”) (ECF No. 23) recommending that Petitioner’s petition for habeas
corpus be denied because Petitioner’s claims are procedurally defaulted. No objections have
been filed, and the deadline for doing so has expired. The Court has reviewed the matter and
concludes that the R&R correctly analyzes the issues and makes a sound recommendation.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge’s December 4, 2014, R&R
(ECF No. 23) is APPROVED and ADOPTED as the Opinion of the Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus
(ECF No. 1) is DENIED.

Dated: January 5, 2015
