UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. (1) CHRISTOPHER GEORGE JOHNSON
ORDER ACCEPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
ALAN D ALBRIGHT, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Before the court is the above styled and numbered cause. On November 16, 2023 the United States Probation Office filed a Petition For Warrant or Summons For Offender Under Supervision for Defendant (1) CHRISTOPHER GEORGE JOHNSON, which alleged that Jonhson violated a condition of his supervised release and recommended that Jonhson 's supervised release be revoked (Clerk's Document No. 57). A warrant issued and Jonhson was arrested. On November 29, 2023, Jonhson appeared before a United States Magistrate Judge, was ordered detained, and a revocation of supervised release hearing was set.
Jonhson appeared before the magistrate judge on January 11, 2024, waived his right to a preliminary hearing and to be present before the United States District Judge at the time of modification of sentence, and consented to allocution before the magistrate judge. Following the hearing, the magistrate judge signed his report and recommendation on January 12, 2024, which provides that having carefully considered all of the arguments and evidence presented by the Government and Defendant, based on the original offense and the intervening conduct of Jonhson, the magistrate judge recommends that this court revoke Jonhson supervised release and that Jonhson be sentenced to imprisonment for TIME SERVED, with no term supervised release to follow the term of imprisonment. The Defendant should receive credit for time served since his arrest. (Clerk's Document No. 76).
A party may serve and file specific, written objections to the proposed findings and recommendations of a magistrate judge within fourteen days after being served with a copy of the report and recommendation, and thereby secure a de novo review by the district court. See 28 U.S.C.§ 636(b); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b). A party's failure to timely file written objections to the proposed findings, conclusions, and recommendation in a report and recommendation bars that party, except upon grounds of plain error, from attacking on appeal the unobjected-to proposed factual findings and legal conclusions accepted by the district court. Douglass v. United Services Auto Ass 'n, 79 F.3d1415 (5th Cir. 1996) (en bane). The parties in this cause were properly notified of the consequences of a failure to file objections.
On January 11, 2024, following the hearing on the motion to revoke supervised release, all parties signed a Waiver Of Fourteen Day Rule For Filing Objections To Report and Recommendation Of United States Magistrate Judge (Clerk's Document No. 75). The court, having reviewed the entire record and finding no plain error, accepts and adopts the report and recommendation filed in this cause.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge filed in this cause (Clerk's Document No. 76) is hereby ACCEPTED AND ADOPTED by this court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant (1) CHRISTOPHER GEORGE JOHNSON's term of supervised release is hereby REVOKED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant (1) CHRISTOPHER GEORGE JOHNSON be imprisoned for TIME SERVED with no term of supervised release. The Defendant should receive credit for time served since his arrest.
