MEMORANDUM ORDER
This matter was referred to Magistrate Judge Keith A. Pesto for proceedings in accordance with 28 U.S.C.§ 636(b) (1), and Local Rule 72 for Magistrate Judges.
The Magistrate Judge filed a Report and Recommendation on April 2, 2013, docket no. 3, recommending that the petitioner's petition for a writ of habeas corpus be dismissed without an answer and that no certificate of appealability be issued.
The petitioner was notified that pursuant to 28 U.S.C.§ 636(b)(1), he had fourteen days to file written objections to the Report and Recommendation.

ORDERED that the petitioner's petition for a writ of habeas corpus is denied and dismissed without a certificate of appealability. The appeal at docket no. 15 from the orders at docket no. 10 and docket no. 14 is denied. The Report and Recommendation is adopted as the opinion of the Court.
