ORDER

WILLIAM PAULEY III, District Judge

Petitioner pro se Jomo Williams ("Williams" or "Petitioner") filed two petitions for writs of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 challenging separate convictions in Westchester County. In the petitions, Williams alleges civil rights violations under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against the Defendants. Defendants move to dismiss the civil rights claims under Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim. This action was referred to Magistrate Judge Frank Maas, for a report and recommendation. In a Report and Recommendation dated March 2, 2010 ("the Report"), Judge Maas recommended that the § 1983 claims be dismissed.

The time to file objections or request an extension of time has passed. Neither party submitted an objection or requested additional time.

Accordingly, this Court adopts Magistrate Judge Maas's thorough and well-reasoned Report in its entirety and grants Defendants' motion to dismiss Plaintiff's civil rights claims (No. 07 Civ. 5496, Docket No. 20).

SO ORDERED:
