ORDER
Petitioner Kevin Lamont Walker, a federal prisoner appearing pro se, filed this
action seeking a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Consistent with 28
U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), the matter was referred for initial proceedings to Magistrate Judge
Robert E. Bacharach, who has recommended that petitioner’s claims be dismissed or
denied. Petitioner has objected to the Report and Recommendation.
The present petition represents petitioner’s fourth or fifth effort to challenge the
validity and/or execution of his sentence.1 All of petitioner’s claims have been, or could
have been, raised in prior proceedings. For substantially the same reasons set forth in the
Report and Recommendation, and mindful of the multiple provisions of federal law
designed to avoid multiple, repetitive filings by a petitioner, petitioner’s habeas petition is
DENIED. His “Open Motion” [Doc. #32], motion to supplement record [Doc. #31], and
motion for expeditious hearing [Doc. #30] are also DENIED.

See e.g., Report and Recommendation, p. 7 nn. 13-14.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated this 6th day of December, 2011.
