Order

Warden, FCI Edgefield,
RESPONDENT

Petitioner Linwood Clifton Wood, proceeding pro se, filed a petition for a writ
of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. ECF No. 1. The matter now comes
before the Court for review of the Report and Recommendation (Report) filed by the
magistrate judge to whom this case was assigned. On the sole issue in the Report,
the magistrate judge recommends denying Petitioner’s motion for leave to proceed in

forma pauperis (IFP Motion). Rather than filing objections to the Report, Petitioner
simply paid the $5 filing fee. ECF No. 15. Accordingly, the Court terminates the
Report, ECF No. 13, and IFP Motion, ECF No. 10, as MOOT.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
