Case No. 3:09 CV 1785.
July 21, 2010
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Petitioner Stephen Lester, a prisoner in state custody, filed a Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus (Doc. No. 1). The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Nancy Vecchiarelli for a Report and Recommendation (R R) pursuant to Local Rule 72.2(b)(2).
The Magistrate Judge filed the R R on May 27, 2010 (Doc. No. 19). Under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C):
Within ten days after being served with a copy, any party may serve and file written objections to such proposed findings and recommendations as provided by rules of court. A judge of the court shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which objection is made.
The ten-day period has elapsed and no objections have been filed. The failure to file written objections constitutes a waiver of a de novo determination by the district court of an issue covered in the report. United States v. Sullivan, 431 F.3d 976, 984 (2005).
The Court has reviewed the R R, and having found it legally and factually accurate, adopts the R R in its entirety. Therefore, the Court denies the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (Doc. No. 1).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
