On February 1, 2010, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation, recommending that the petition of Derrick Williamson, for writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254, be denied. Petitioner has not filed any objections to the Report Recommendation. The time to file objections has now elapsed.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Lewis M. Blanton [#16] is sustained, adopted, and incorporated herein.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the petition of Derrick Williamson, for a writ of habeas corpus [#1] is denied. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that petitioner has failed to make a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right and the Court will not issue a certificate of appealability. See Cox v.
