Opinion
CRIMINAL NO. 1:06CR19.
October 19, 2007
ORDER
On September 27, 2007, Magistrate Judge Kaull filed a Report and Recommendation in which he recommended that the defendant's motion to suppress be DENIED as MOOT based on the defendant's entry of a guilty plea to Count Four of the Indictment. The Report and Recommendation also specifically warned that failure to object to his recommendations would result in the parties' waiver of any appellate rights on this issue. Because the parties did not file any objections, the defendant's motion (Docket No. 64) is DENIED as MOOT.
It is so ORDERED.
The failure of the parties to object to the Report and Recommendation not only waives their appellate rights in this matter, but also relieves the Court of any obligation to conduct a de novo review of the issue presented. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 148-153 (1985); Wells v. Shriners Hosp., 109 F.3d 198, 199-200 (4th Cir. 1997).
