Case No. 2:16-CV-197

JEFF SESSIONS, et al.,

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
On February 14, 2017, Magistrate Judge Timothy Greeley issued a Report and
Recommendation recommending that the Court deny Petitioner’s habeas petition on the basis that
Petitioner failed to show that his removal is unlikely in the reasonably foreseeable future. The
Report and Recommendation was duly served on the parties by February 15, 2017. No objections
have been filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b).1 Therefore the Court will adopt the Report and
Recommendation.
Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Greeley’s Report and Recommendation
issued February 14, 2017 (ECF No. 10) is APPROVED AND ADOPTED as the Opinion of this
Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner’s habeas corpus petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 2241 is DENIED.

The Court notes that the copy of the Report and Recommendation sent to Petitioner was returned on February
23, 2017, marked “Inmate Transferred.” Petitioner’s failure to update the Court with his current address is itself a
separate ground for dismissal “for want of prosecution.” W.D. Mich. LCivR 41.1.

A separate judgment will issue.2
This case is concluded.

Dated: March 8, 2017
