Gerald Austin McHugh, United States District Judge
This 9th day of April, 2024, upon careful and independent consideration of Joseph Allen Jackson's amended petition for writ of habeas corpus (ECF 6), and after review of the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Lynne A. Sitarski (ECF 17), it is hereby ORDERED that:
Mr. Williams did not file objections to Magistrate Judge Sitarski's Report and Recommendation despite having been granted a liberal extension of time within which to do so. ECF 19.
1. The Report and Recommendation is APPROVED and ADOPTED; 2. The amended petition for a writ of habeas corpus is DENIED and DISMISSED; 3. A certificate of appealability shall not issue, in that the Petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right nor demonstrated that reasonable jurists would debate the correctness of this ruling. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2); Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484 (2000); and 4. The Clerk of the Court shall mark this case CLOSED for statistical purposes.
