OPINION and ORDER

On June 23, 2011, the Magistrate Judge filed a Recommendation in this case

Court of Appeals authorizing a federal district court to consider his successive habeas

application. (Doc. # 5). Upon an independent review of the file in this case and upon

consideration of the Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, it is 

ORDERED and ADJUDGED that the Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge be

and is hereby ADOPTED, that the petition for habeas corpus relief be and is hereby

DENIED, and that this case be and is hereby DISMISSED in accordance with the provisions

of 28 U.S.C. § 2244(b)(3)(A).
