IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA 

Abdifatah Adem, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

Katrina S. Kane, 

Respondent.

No. CV-14-02472-PHX-GMS

ORDER 

 Pending before the Court are Plaintiff’s Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and 

United States Magistrate Judge Michelle H. Burns’ Report and Recommendation 

(“R&R”). Docs. 1, 11. The R&R recommends that the Court dismiss the Petition 

without prejudice as moot. Doc. 11 at 2. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that 

they had fourteen days to file objections to the R&R and that failure to file timely 

objections could be considered a waiver of the right to obtain review of the R&R. Id. at 2 

(28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Rules 72, 6(a)), 6(b), Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; United 

States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003)). 

 The parties did not file objections, which relieves the Court of its obligation to 

review the R&R. See Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 

(1985) (“[Section 636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is 

not the subject of an objection.”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge must 

determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge’s disposition that has been properly 

objected to.”). The Court has nonetheless reviewed the R&R and finds that it is wellCase 2:14-cv-02472-GMS Document 13 Filed 01/16/15 Page 1 of 2

taken. The Court will accept the R&R and dismiss the Complaint without prejudice as 

moot. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (stating that the district court “may accept, reject, or 

modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate”); 

Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3) (“The district judge may accept, reject, or modify the 

recommended disposition; receive further evidence; or return the matter to the magistrate 

judge with instructions.”). 

IT IS ORDERED:

 1. Magistrate Judge Burns’ R&R (Doc. 11) is accepted. 

 2. Petitioner’s Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus (Doc. 1) is dismissed 

without prejudice as moot. 

 3. The Clerk of Court shall terminate this action. 

 4. Because this case arises under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, no ruling on a certificate 

of appealability is required. 

 Dated this 16th day of January, 2015.
