Opinion

Case No. CV 13-1183 DSF (MRW)

07-30-2015

GRAY MARIA, Petitioner, v. RANDY GROUNDS, Warden, Respondent.

HON. DALE S. FISCHER UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

ORDER ACCEPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636, the Court reviewed the petition, the records on file, and the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge. Further, the Court engaged in a de novo review of those portions of the Report to which Petitioner objected. The Court notes that, after the filing of the Report and Recommendation, the Ninth Circuit decided Lee v. Jacquez, 788 F.3d 1124 (9^th Cir. 2015). The Court need not decide the impact of Lee here because the Report and Recommendation alternatively addressed the merits of the potentially barred claims. The Court accepts the findings and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge.

IT IS ORDERED that Judgment be entered denying the petition and dismissing this action with prejudice. DATE: July 30, 2015
