JAMES DONALD WESTFALL, Petitioner, v. LORIE DAVIS, Director, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Correctional Institutions Division, Respondent.
ORDER ACCEPTING FINDINGS , CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
This is a habeas action brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 in which Petitioner challenges the validity of his convictions for possession of child pornography and aggravated sexual assault. The United States Magistrate Judge entered his Findings, Conclusions, and Recommendation in which he recommends that the petition be dismissed as barred by the statute of limitations. See ECF No. 7. Petitioner has not filed objections. The District Court has reviewed the Findings, Conclusions, and Recommendation for plain error. Finding no error, I am of the opinion that the findings of fact, conclusions of law, and reasons for dismissal set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Recommendation are correct and they are hereby adopted and incorporated by reference as the Findings of the Court.
Accordingly, the petition for writ of habeas corpus is DISMISSED as TIME-BARRED.
SO ORDERED this 29th day of May, 2018.
