DAVID N. HURD United States District Judge DECISION and ORDER
Pro se petitioner David McCullough brought this petition for habeas relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On March 23, 2015, the Honorable David E. Peebles, United States Magistrate Judge, advised, by Report-Recommendation, that the petition be dismissed and no certificate of appealability be issued. No objections to the Report-Recommendation were filed.
Based upon a careful review of entire file and the recommendations of the Magistrate Judge, the Report-Recommendation is accepted in whole. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
Therefore, it is
ORDERED that
1. The petition for a writ of habeas corpus is DENIED and DISMISSED;
2. Because petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of any constitutional right, a certificate of appealability will not issue. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253; and
3. The Clerk serve a copy of this Decision and Order on the parties in accordance with the Local Rules, enter judgment accordingly, and close the file.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
