No. CIV-14-0384-C

ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This action for habeas corpus relief brought by a prisoner, proceeding pro se, was
referred to United States Magistrate Judge Charles B. Goodwin, consistent with the
provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B).

Judge Goodwin entered a Report and

Recommendation on March 13, 2015, to which Petitioner has timely objected. The Court
therefore considers the matter de novo.
The facts and law are accurately set out in the Magistrate Judge’s Report and
Recommendation and there is no purpose to be served in repeating them yet again. In his
objection, Petitioner merely restates the conclusions and legal argument originally asserted,
and raises no issue not fully and accurately addressed and rejected by the Magistrate Judge.
Accordingly, the Court adopts, in its entirety, the Report and Recommendation of the
Magistrate Judge (Dkt. No. 13), and for the reasons announced therein, this petition for
habeas corpus relief is dismissed, as untimely. As no amendment can cure the defect, this
dismissal acts as an adjudication on the merits, and a judgment will enter. Petitioner’s

Motion for Evidentiary Hearing (Dkt. No. 6) and Motion for Status hearing (Dkt. No. 12) are
denied as moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 31st day of March, 2015.
