DAVID N. HURD United States District Judge DECISION and ORDER

Pro se petitioner Miles Lewis brought this petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On August 12, 2015, the Honorable Andrew T. Baxter, United States Magistrate Judge, advised, by Report-Recommendation, that the petition be denied. Petitioner timely filed objections to the Report-Recommendation.

Based upon a de novo review of the portions of the Report-Recommendation to which petitioner objected, the Report-Recommendation is adopted in whole. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Rule 10, Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases.

Therefore, it is

ORDERED that

1. The petition for a writ of habeas corpus is DENIED and DISMISSED; and

2. The Clerk is directed to close the file.

Because petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of any constitutional right, a certificate of appealability will not issue. See 28 U.S.C. § 2253.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
