JUDGE DAN AARON POLSTER
MEMORANDUM OF OPINION
AND ORDER
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge George
Limbert (“R & R”) (Doc. # 7). The R&R recommends that the Court dismiss as time-barred
Petitioner Duane Gregley’s 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for writ of habeas corpus (“2254
Petition”)(Doc. # 1). The R&R also recommends that the Court deny as moot Gregley’s pending
motion to expand the record (Doc. # 3).
Under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) a habeas petitioner has 14 days after being served a copy of
the R&R to file written objections. A copy of the R&R was mailed to Petitioner on August 29,
2014. In this case, 21 days have elapsed since the R&R was issued, and Petitioner has filed
neither an objection nor a request for an extension of time to file one.
Failure to file objections by the deadline constitutes a waiver of the right to obtain a de
novo review of the R&R in the district court, United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947, 949 (6th
Cir. 1981), and a waiver of the right to appeal. Thomas v. Arn, 728 F.2d 813 (6th Cir. 1984),
aff’d, 474 U.S. 140 (1985).
The Court has reviewed the Magistrate Judge’s R&R and agrees that the 2254 Petition
should be dismissed as time-barred and that the pending motion to expand the record should be
denied as moot. Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge’s R&R (Doc. # 7).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
