ORDER OVERRULING OBJECTIONS, ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION, AND DISMISSING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

MARY ROBINSON, District Judge

Came this day for consideration the petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed by petitioner MANUEL CASTILLO. On August 14, 2001, the United States Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation in this cause, recommending therein that petitioner's application for a writ of habeas corpus be dismissed. Petitioner filed objections to the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation on August 31, 2001.

The undersigned United States District Judge has made an independent examination of the record in this case and has examined the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, as well as the objections filed by petitioner. The District Judge is of the opinion petitioner's objections should be, and hereby are, OVERRULED. The District Judge is of the further opinion that the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation should be, and hereby is, ADOPTED. Accordingly, the petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed by petitioner is DISMISSED.

LET JUDGMENT BE ENTERED ACCORDINGLY.

The United States District Clerk is directed to mail a file-marked copy of this Order to petitioner and to each attorney of record by first class U.S. mail.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
