IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF WEST VIRGINIA
BECKLEY DIVISION
ROY STEVE DAVIS,
Petitioner,
v.
CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:13-cv-24876
JOEL ZIEGLER,
Respondent.
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
The Court has reviewed the pleadings in this matter including the Petitioner=s October 9,
2013 Application Under 28 U.S.C. ' 2241 for Writ of Habeas Corpus By a Person in State or
Federal Custody (Document 1).
By Standing Order (Document 4) entered on October 16, 2013, this action was referred to
the Honorable Dwane L. Tinsley, United States Magistrate Judge, for submission to this Court of
proposed findings of fact and recommendation for disposition, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ' 636. On
June 12, 2014, the Magistrate Judge submitted a Proposed Findings and Recommendation
(Document 14) wherein it is recommended that this Court grant the Respondent’s Motion to
Dismiss (Document 13), deny as moot the Petitioner’s § 2241 Application (Document 1), and deny
the Petitioner’s remaining pending motions (Documents 5, 9 & 12). Objections to the Magistrate
Judge=s Proposed Findings and Recommendation were due by June 30, 2014.

Neither party has timely filed objections to the Magistrate Judge=s Proposed Findings and
Recommendation. The Court is not required to review, under a de novo or any other standard, the
factual or legal conclusions of the magistrate judge as to those portions of the findings or
recommendation to which no objections are addressed. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 150 (1985).
Failure to file timely objections constitutes a waiver of de novo review and the Petitioner=s right to
appeal this Court=s Order. 28 U.S.C. ' 636(b)(1); see also Snyder v. Ridenour, 889 F.2d 1363,
1366 (4th Cir. 1989); United States v. Schronce, 727 F.2d 91, 94 (4th Cir. 1984).
Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS and incorporates herein the findings and
recommendation of the Magistrate Judge as contained in the Proposed Findings and
Recommendation, and ORDERS as follows:
1) The Respondent’s Motion to Dismiss (Document 13) is GRANTED;
2) The Petitioner’s § 2241 Application (Document 1) is DENIED AS MOOT;
3) The Petitioner’s Motion for Expedited Service (Document 5) is DENIED;
4) The Petitioner’s Motion for Consideration (Document 9) is DENIED; and
5) The Petitioner’s Motion for Reconsideration (Document 12) is DENIED.
The Court further ORDERS that this matter be REMOVED from the Court’s docket.
The Court DIRECTS the Clerk to send a certified copy of this Order to Magistrate Judge
Tinsley, counsel of record, and any unrepresented party.
