MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is an action on a petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 by Jose Antonio Garcia Rivera, a/k/a Domingo Antonio Castillo ("Petitioner").

After careful consideration of the record in this case and the magistrate judge's report, the court hereby ADOPTS the report and ACCEPTS its recommendations. Accordingly, Petitioner's claims are due to be dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction or otherwise denied.

A separate order will be entered.

DONE this 10th day of August, 2016.
