JUDGE ROBERT G. JAMES
MAGISTRATE JUDGE KAREN L. HAYES
JUDGMENT
For the reasons stated in the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge previously filed herein, and after an independent review of the record including the objections filed by petitioner, and having determined that the findings and recommendation are correct under the applicable law;
IT IS ORDERED that this petition for habeas corpus be deemed successive and DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction because petitioner did not obtain permission from the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals prior to filing; in the alternative,
IT IS ORDERED that this petition for habeas corpus be DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE because petitioner's claims are barred by the one-year limitation period codified at 28 U.S.C. §2244(d).
Monroe, Louisiana, this 9th day of June, 2014.
