Honorable Thomas L. Ludington
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION, ACCEPTING
DEFENDANT'S PLEA OF GUILTY AS TO THE INFORMATION, AND TAKING THE
RULE 11 PLEA AGREEMENT UNDER ADVISEMENT
A plea hearing was conducted on August 12, 2013 by United States Magistrate Judge Charles E. Binder pursuant to Defendant's consent. Judge Binder issued his report the next day, recommending that this Court accept Defendant's plea of guilty as to the information. As of today's date, no party has filed any objections to Judge Binder's report and recommendation. The election to not file objections to the report releases the Court from its duty to independently review the record. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985).
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that Judge Binder's report and recommendation, ECF No. 21, is ADOPTED.
It is further ORDERED that Defendant's plea of guilty as to the information is ACCEPTED, and the Rule 11 Plea Agreement, ECF No. 20, is taken UNDER ADVISEMENT.
