OPINION

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241, petitioner filed this 

habeas-corpus case. This lawsuit is now before the 

court on the recommendation of the United States 

Magistrate Judge that this habeas-corpus request be 

construed as a petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 and be 

denied because the required permission has not been 

obtained from the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. 

Also before the court are petitioner's objections to 

the recommendation. After an independent and de novo 

review of the record, the court concludes that the 

Case 1:15-cv-00658-MHT-WC Document 6 Filed 10/06/15 Page 1 of 2
objections should be overruled and the magistrate 

judge’s recommendation adopted.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 6th day of October, 2015.
