ORDER
On February 26, 2014, the United States Magistrate Judge’s Recommendation was filed
and notice was served on the parties pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636. Petitioner filed a document
titled, Request to Take Judicial Notice [Doc. #16], and objections [Doc. #17] to the
Recommendation within the time limit prescribed by Section 636. The Court has reviewed
Petitioner’s request for judicial notice and objections de novo and finds they do not change the
substance of the United States Magistrate Judge’s Recommendation [Doc. #14] which is
affirmed and adopted.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Respondent’s Motion for Summary Judgment
[Doc. #8] is granted, that the Petition [Doc. #2] is denied, that this action is dismissed, and that
finding no substantial issue for appeal concerning the denial of a constitutional right affecting
the conviction, nor a debatable procedural ruling, a certificate of appealability is DENIED.
This, the 24th day of March, 2014.

United States District Judge
