UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. ANTHONY WAYNE HIRT, Defendant.
Honorable Patricia T. Morris United States Magistrate Judge
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION, ACCEPTING DEFENDANT'S PLEA OF GUILTY, AND TAKING RULE 11 PLEA AGREEMENT UNDER ADVISEMENT
Honorable Thomas L. Ludington United States District Judge
On March 9, 2022, Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris conducted a plea hearing upon Defendant Anthony Wayne Hirt's consent, after which Judge Morris issued her Report and Recommendation, recommending that this Court accept Defendant's guilty plea. ECF No. 27.
Although Judge Morris's Report stated that the parties could object and seek review within 14 days of service of the Report, neither party has objected. Therefore, they have waived their right to appeal Judge Morris's finding that Defendant was competent to enter a plea, and that the plea was entered 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 the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, ECF No. 27, is ADOPTED.
Further, it is ORDERED that Defendant's plea of guilty is ACCEPTED, and the Rule 11 Plea Agreement, ECF No. 26, is taken UNDER ADVISEMENT.
