IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

PINE BLUFF DIVISION 

DEANDRA STEPHENSON PETITIONER 

ADC #138392 

v. Case No. 5:12-cv-00106-KGB 

RAY HOBBS, Director, 

Arkansas Department of Correction RESPONDENT 

ORDER 

The Court has reviewed the Proposed Findings and Recommendations of Magistrate 

Judge Jerome T. Kearney (Dkt. No. 33) and the objections filed by petitioner DeAndra 

Stephenson (Dkt. No. 34). After a careful review of the Proposed Findings and 

Recommendations and the objections, as well as a de novo review of the record, the Court 

concludes that the Proposed Findings and Recommendations should be, and hereby are, 

approved and adopted in their entirety as this Court’s findings in all respects. The relief 

requested is denied. 

Accordingly, judgment shall be entered dismissing with prejudice this petition. The 

Court will not issue a certificate of appealability because Mr. Stephenson has not made a 

substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)-(2). 

SO ORDERED this the 18th day of February, 2015.
