David William Robertson, Petitioner, v. Unknown Parties, et al., Respondents.
ORDER
Michael T. Liburdi United States District Judge
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Alison S. Bachus (“R & R”) (Doc. 26) recommending that Petitioner's Second Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (Doc. 19) be dismissed with prejudice, and that a certificate of appealability and leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal be denied. Petitioner has not filed any objections to the R & R. The deadline to do so passed fourteen days following service of the R & R, which was electronically mailed to Petitioner on June 7, 2024.
In reviewing an R & R, the Court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). “[T]he district judge must review the magistrate judge's finding and recommendations de novo if objection is made, but not otherwise.” United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc) (emphasis in original); see Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985) (finding that the District Court need not conduct “any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection”). No objections having been received, the Court will accept and adopt the R & R in its entirety.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 26) is accepted.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Second Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (Doc. 19) is dismissed with prejudice.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED denying the issuance of a certificate of appealability and leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal because Petitioner has not demonstrated that reasonable jurists could find the ruling debatable or conclude that the issues presented are adequate to deserve encouragement to proceed further. See Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 327 (2003).
IT IS FINALLY ORDERED that the Clerk of Court shall enter judgment accordingly and close this case.
