Williams' ("Williams'") Objections to Magistrate Judge Sharon L. Ovington's Report and Recommendations. The Report and Recommendations was entered on August 10, 2010. (Doc. #12.) On August 26, 2010, Williams filed objections. (Doc. 13.) The time has run and the Ohio Adult Parole Authority has not filed a response. Williams' Objections are, therefore, ripe for decision. As required by 28 U.S.C. §636(b) and Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 72(b), the District Judge has made a de novo review of the record in this case. Upon said review, the Court finds that Williams' Objections to the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendations are not well-taken, and they are hereby OVERRULED. The Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendations is adopted in its entirety. Judge Thomas M. Rose Magistrate Judge Sharon L. Ovington

Williams' Motion for Summary Judgment is overruled. Further, Williams' Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus is dismissed with prejudice because it is without merit. Finally, The captioned cause is hereby ordered terminated upon the docket records of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, Western Division, at Dayton. DONE and ORDERED in Dayton, Ohio, this Sixteenth day of September, 2010. s/Thomas M. Rose ________________________________ THOMAS M.
