UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. RODERICK MICHAEL BURGINS, Defendant.
Honorable Kimberly G. Altman, United States Magistrate Judge
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION, ACCEPTING GUILTY PLEA, AND TAKING RULE 11 PLEA AGREEMENT UNDER ADVISEMENT
THOMAS L. LUDINGTON, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Magistrate Judge Kimberly G. Altman conducted a plea hearing upon Defendant Roderick Michael Burgins's consent. ECF No. 22. On September 19, 2022, Judge Altman issued a R&R recommending that this Court accept Defendant's guilty plea. ECF No. 23.
Although the R&R states that the parties may object to and seek review of the recommendations within 14 days of service, neither Plaintiff nor Defendant filed any objections. They have therefore waived their right to appeal Judge Altman's findings that Defendant was competent to enter a plea and did so knowingly, voluntarily, without coercion, and with a basis in fact. See FED. R. CRIM. P. 11(b); Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985).
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Judge Altman's Report and Recommendation, ECF No. 23, is ADOPTED.
Further, it is ORDERED that Defendant's guilty plea is ACCEPTED, and the Rule 11 Plea Agreement, ECF No. 22, is TAKEN UNDER ADVISEMENT.
