Kenneth Senoski's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 was received by the Clerk of Court on December 19, 2008, and was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Cathy Bissoon for pretrial proceedings in accordance with the Magistrates Act, 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), and Rules 72.1.3 and 72.1.4 of the Local Rules for Magistrates.
The Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, filed on January 5, 2009, recommended that the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus filed by Petitioner Senosky be dismissed as a successive petition.
