ORDER

We previously adopted the recommended decision of the United States Magistrate

Judge and denied petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus (doc. 17). Thereafter, we

denied petitioner's motion to enlarge the time to file objections to the report and

recommendation (doc. 22). Nevertheless, we now have before us petitioner's objections to

the report and recommendation (doc. 21). 

We have reviewed the objections and reconfirm our adoption of the Magistrate Judge's

recommendation denying the Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. Because petitioner refuses

to cooperate in his removal, he is unable to satisfy his burden under Zadvydas v. Davis, 533

U.S. 678, 699-700, 121 S. Ct. 2491, 2504 (2001); see also Pelich v. INS, 329 F.2d 1057,

1060 (9th Cir. 2003). Additionally, we do not have jurisdiction to review petitioner's order

of removal. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(5).

we reconfirm our earlier decision denying petitioner's Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus

(doc. 1). 

DATED this 23rd day of January, 2007.
