ORDER
This case has been reassigned to the undersigned Judge.
Pending before the Court is the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation on
Petitioner’s Motion for Leave to File an Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28
U.S.C. § 2254 (see Doc. No. 14), which was filed on August 30, 2018. (Doc. No. 19). In the
Report and Recommendation, the Magistrate Judge recommends Petitioner’s motion to amend be
denied, finding his potential claims without merit. (Id.).
Although the Report and Recommendation advised the parties that any objections must be
filed within fourteen days of service, no objections were filed. The Court has reviewed the Report
and Recommendation and concludes that it should be adopted and approved. Accordingly,
Petitioner’s Motion for Leave to File an Amended Petition is DENIED.
It is so ORDERED.
