AILEEN M. CANNON, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
THIS CAUSE comes before the Court upon the Report and Recommendation entered by Magistrate Judge Shaniek Maynard Following Change of Plea Hearing [ECF No. 26].

Magistrate Judge Maynard thereafter issued a Report recommending that the Court accept Defendant's guilty plea to the Indictment, that the Court find Defendant to have freely and voluntarily entered his guilty plea, and that the Court adjudicate him guilty of the Indictment [ECF No. 26]. No party has filed objections to the Report, and the time to do so has expired.
