ORDER

Before the Court are the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation (R&R) on this
habeas petition, Docket No. 49, and petitioner John McDonald’s timely objection to the R&R,
Docket No. 50.
This Court has thoroughly reviewed the Magistrate Judge’s R&R and Mr. McDonald’s
specific objections. It concludes that under the applicable law, the R&R is well-reasoned and
legally correct. Accordingly, the Court will adopt the R&R as its own Order.
This petition is, therefore, dismissed with prejudice. A separate Final Judgment will issue
shortly.
SO ORDERED, this the 21st day of August, 2020.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
