Opinion
CIVIL ACTION NO. 4:10-422-HFF-TER.
July 27, 2010
ORDER
This case was filed as a 28 U.S.C. § 2241 action. Petitioner is proceeding pro se. The matter is before the Court for review of the Report and Recommendation (Report) of the United States Magistrate Judge suggesting that this case be dismissed without prejudice and without issuance and service of process upon Respondent. The Report was made in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636 and Local Civil Rule 73.02 for the District of South Carolina.
The Magistrate Judge makes only a recommendation to this Court. The recommendation has no presumptive weight. The responsibility to make a final determination remains with the Court. Mathews v. Weber, 423 U.S. 261, 270 (1976). The Court is charged with making a de novo determination of those portions of the Report to which specific objection is made, and the Court may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendation of the Magistrate Judge or recommit the matter with instructions. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
The Magistrate Judge filed the Report on June 18, 2010, and the Clerk of Court entered Petitioner's objections to the Report on July 12, 2010. The Court has reviewed the objections, but finds them to be unavailing. Therefore, it will enter judgment accordingly.
After a thorough review of the Report and the record in this case pursuant to the standard set forth above, the Court overrules Petitioner's objections, adopts the Report and incorporates it herein. Therefore, it is the judgment of this Court that this case is DISMISSED without prejudice and without issuance and service of process upon Respondent.
To the extent that Petitioner requests a certificate of appealability from this Court, that certificate is DENIED.
