Opinion

Case No. 09-cr-20303 Civil Case No. 13-cv-11793

02-01-2016

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff/Respondent, v. MICHAEL KELLER, Defendant/Petitioner.


ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (document no. 116), AND DENYING PETITIONER'S MOTION TO VACATE SENTENCE (document no. 89)

Petitioner Michael Keller ("Keller"), confined at the Milan Federal Corrections Institute in Milan, Michigan, moves to vacate, set aside, or reduce his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255. The Court referred the motion to Magistrate Judge Mona K. Majzoub, who issued a Report and Recommendation ("Report") suggesting the Court deny the motion. Report, ECF No. 116.

Civil Rule 72(b) governs review of a magistrate judge's report and recommendation. De novo review of the magistrate judge's findings is only required if the parties "serve and file specific written objections to the proposed findings and recommendations." Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2). Because no objections were filed, de novo review of the Report's conclusions is not required. After reviewing the record, the Court finds that the magistrate judge's conclusions are factually based and legally sound. Accordingly, the Court will adopt the Report's findings and deny Keller's motion to vacate sentence.

ORDER

WHEREFORE, it is hereby ORDERED that the magistrate judge's Report and Recommendation (document no. 116) is ADOPTED.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner's Motion to Vacate Sentence (document no. 89) is DENIED.

SO ORDERED.
