IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA 

Augustine Bernal Thomas,

Defendant/Movant, 

v. 

United States of America, 

Respondent.

No. CV13-02299-PHX-SRB(MEA)

 CR10-00927-PHX-SRB 

 Movant, Augustine Bernal Thomas, filed a Motion to Vacate, Set Aside, or 

Correct Sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 on November 8, 2013. The United 

States filed its response in opposition on August 28, 2014. Movant did not file a reply. 

 The Magistrate Judge filed the Report and Recommendation on October 7, 2014 

recommending that Movant's Motion to Vacate, Set Aside, or Correct Sentence be 

denied. In the Report and Recommendation, the Magistrate Judge advised the parties that 

they had fourteen days from the date of service of a copy of the Report and 

Recommendation within which to file specific written objections with the Court. The 

time to file such objections has long since expired and no objections to the Report and 

Recommendation have been filed.
