LOUIS JAMES BROWN III, #02352001 v. DIRECTOR, TDCJ-CID


ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION CONCERNING PETITIONER'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT

AMOS L. MAZZANT UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

The above-entitled and numbered civil action was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Aileen Goldman Durrett, who issued a Report and Recommendation (“the Report”) (Dkt. #26) concluding that Petitioner's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. #18) should be denied. Petitioner filed a Notice (Dkt. #27),acknowledging that summary judgment is not a proper method of adjudicating a § 2254 petition. See Browder v. Dir., Ill. Dep't of Corr., 434 U.S. 257, 269 n.14 (1978). Thus, Petitioner has not objected to the findings and conclusions of the Report.

In the Notice, Petitioner seeks an expedited ruling in his case. (Dkt. #27). The Court will consider Petitioner's case as soon as possible given its substantial docket and limited resources.

The Report of the Magistrate Judge, which contains proposed findings of fact and recommendations for the disposition of such action, has been presented for consideration. The Court concludes that the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge are correct. Therefore, the Court hereby adopts the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge as the findings and conclusions of the Court.

It is accordingly ORDERED that Petitioner's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. #18) is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
