HONORABLE PAUL L. MALONEY
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
The Court has reviewed the Report and Recommendation filed by United States Magistrate Judge Joseph G. Scoville in this action. The Report and Recommendation was duly served on the parties. No objections have been filed.
ACCORDINGLY, the Report and Recommendation (Dkt. #96) is hereby adopted as the opinion of the Court. Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that a conditional writ of habeas corpus issues solely on petitioner's claim that he was improperly deprived of his appeal of right from felony convictions in People v. Morris, Wayne County Circuit Court case no. 2001-001816-01.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the petitioner shall be released from custody on said convictions 90 days from the date of this order, unless within that time the State of Michigan grants petitioner an appeal of right and appoints counsel to represent him on that appeal if he so qualifies.
Paul L. Maloney
Chief United States District Judge
