JOHN C. YOUNG, Petitioner, v. R. BARNES, Warden, Respondent.
ORDER ACCEPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636, the Court has reviewed the 28 U.S.C. § 2254 Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus, the respondent's answer and accompanying memorandum, the lodged state-court documents, petitioner's traverse and the accompanying memorandum, the Report and Recommendation ("R&R") of the United States Magistrate Judge, and petitioner's objections to the R&R. Respondent did not exercise his Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2) right to file a response to the objections. As required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3), the Court has engaged in de novo review of the portions of the R&R to which petitioner has specifically objected and finds no error of law, fact, or logic in the Magistrate Judge's well-reasoned R&R.
Petitioner's objection [Doc #32] is OVERRULED.
The Report and Recommendation [Doc #28] is ADOPTED.
The Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus [Doc #1] is DENIED.
This action is dismissed with prejudice and the case is TERMINATED.
As required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 58(a), final judgment will be entered by separate document. Dated: July 2, 2015
