Opinion
Case No. CIV-07-640-F.
January 24, 2008
ORDER
On October 12, 2007, United States Magistrate Judge Robert E. Bacharach issued a Report and Recommendation, wherein he recommended that the court deny petitioner's requests for discovery, expansion of the record, an evidentiary hearing, and issuance of a writ of habeas corpus.
Presently before the court is petitioner's objection to the Report and Recommendation. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), the court has conducted a de novo review of the matter. Having done so, the court concurs with the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Bacharach. The court finds petitioner's objection to be without merit. Accordingly, the court accepts, adopts, and affirms the Report and Recommendation.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation issued by United States Magistrate Judge Robert E. Bacharach on October 12, 2007 (doc. no. 11) is ACCEPTED, ADOPTED, and AFFIRMED.
IT IS ALSO ORDERED that petitioner's requests for discovery, expansion of the record, an evidentiary hearing, and issuance of a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (doc. no. 1) are DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that judgment shall issue forthwith.
