No. 4:11-CV-777 CAS

ORDER
This matter is before the Court on state prisoner Terry E. Washington’s action pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 2254. This case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Noelle C. Collins for
report and recommendation on all dispositive matters and for final disposition on all non-dispositive
matters, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b).
On July 30, 2014, Judge Collins filed a Report and Recommendation of United States
Magistrate Judge that recommended Washington’s petition for writ of habeas corpus be denied. The
Magistrate Judge concluded that petitioner’s Grounds 1, 2 and 4 are procedurally defaulted, and that
Ground 3 is without merit. No objections were filed to the Magistrate Judge’s Report and
Recommendation within the time permitted.
After careful review of the record, the Court concurs in the recommendation of the
Magistrate Judge.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of United States
Magistrate Judge is sustained, adopted and incorporated herein. [Doc. 11]

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Terry E. Washington, Jr.’s Petition for Writ of Habeas
Corpus pursuant to Title 28 U.S.C. § 2254 is DENIED. [Doc. 1]
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this matter is DISMISSED, with no further action to
take place herein.
An appropriate judgment will accompany this order.
