This matter is before the Court on defendant Robert Rico Pruitt's Motion to Suppress Evidence and Statements [Doc. #16], and the government's Motion for a Pretrial Determination of the Admissibility of defendant's confession, [Doc. # 14]. The Court referred this matter to United States Magistrate Judge David D. Noce for a report and recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). An evidentiary hearing was scheduled for July 7, 2006.

He thereafter waived his rights to file pretrial motions and to have a pretrial hearing. Judge Noce entered his Order and Recommendation that the motions be denied as moot on July 7, 2006. To date, no objections to the report and recommendation have been filed.
In that defendant has withdrawn the motion, the Court agrees with Judge Noce's recommendation.
