Case No. CIV-13-220-R

ORDER
Petitioner, a state prisoner appearing through counsel, filed this action pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 2254, seeking a writ of habeas corpus. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), the matter was
referred to United States Magistrate Judge Suzanne Mitchell for preliminary review. On March 15,
2013, Judge Mitchell issued a Report and Recommendation, wherein she recommended the petition
be transferred to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma because
Petitioner's state court conviction was in the District Court of Pontotoc County, which is located in
the Eastern District of Oklahoma. The record reflects that Petitioner has not responded to the Report
and Recommendation within the time limits prescribed therein, nor sought an extension of time in
which to object. Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation is hereby adopted and the Clerk of
Court is directed to transfer this action to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Oklahoma.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 8th day of April, 2013.
