TIMOTHY JONES, Petitioner, v. EDWARD SHELDON, Warden, Mansfield Correctional Institution, Respondent.
Michael R. Merz Magistrate Judge
ORDER AND ENTRY: (1) ADOPTING THE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE (Doc. No. 27); AND (2) DENYING PETITIONER'S FED. R. CIV. P. 60(b) MOTION (Doc. No. 26)
Hon. Michael J. Newman United States District Judge
The Court previously adopted Magistrate Judge Michael R. Merz's Report and Recommendation and dismissed with prejudice this habeas corpus case. Doc. Nos. 20, 21. On October 21, 2021, the Clerk entered judgment thereon. Doc. No. 22.
This case is now before the Court on Petitioner's Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b) motion (Doc. No. 26) and the Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 27) issued by Magistrate Judge Merz. The report recommends denying Petitioner's motion. As required by 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b), the Court has reviewed the comprehensive findings of the Magistrate Judge and considered de novo all filings in this matter. Petitioner has not filed objections to the Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 27), and the time for him to do so has passed. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(a). Consequently, this matter is ripe for review.
Upon careful de novo consideration of the foregoing, the Court determines that the Report and Recommendation should be adopted. Accordingly, the Court: (1) ADOPTS in its entirety the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (Doc. No. 27); and (2) DENIES Petitioner's Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b) motion (Doc. No. 26). This case remains TERMINATED on the docket.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
