CASE NO. 5:13CV976
JUDGE JOHN R. ADAMS

MEMORANDUM OF OPINION
AND ORDER

This matter came before the Court on Petitioner’s petition for habeas corpus pursuant to
28 U.S.C. §2254.

Doc. 1.

This Court referred the matter to the Magistrate Judge.

The

Magistrate Judge submitted a report and recommendation recommending that the Court deny the
petition. Doc. 24
Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) provides that the parties may object to a report and recommendation
within 14 days after service. Petitioner did not file any objections to the Magistrate Judge’s
report and recommendation. Any further review by this Court would be a duplicative and
inefficient use of the Court’s limited resources. Thomas v. Arn, 728 F.2d 813 (6th Cir. 1984);
Howard v. Sec’y of Health and Human Servs., 932 F.2d 505 (6th Cir. 1991); United States v.
Walters, 638 F.2d 947, 949-50 (6th Cir. 1981).
Accordingly, the report and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge is hereby adopted.
The Petition for Habeas Corpus is DISMISSED. The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§1915(A)(3), that an appeal from this decision could not be taken in good faith, and that there is
no basis upon which to issue a certificate of appealability.
IT IS SO ORDERED
Dated: 7/8/2014
