OPINION

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255, petitioner, a federal

inmate, filed this lawsuit seeking habeas relief. This

lawsuit is now before the court on the recommendations of

the United States Magistrate Judge that petitioner’s writ

petition be denied. Also before the court are

petitioner’s and respondent’s objections to the

recommendations. Respondent does not actually object to

the ultimate recommendations but rather seeks to correct

a misstatement of fact in one of these recommendations.

After an independent and de novo review of the record,

Case 2:03-cv-00243-MHT-CSC Document 79 Filed 06/19/07 Page 1 of 2
the court concludes that petitioner’s objections should

be overruled, respondent’s objection should be sustained,

and the magistrate judge’s recommendations adopted as

modified by respondent’s objection.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 19th day of June, 2007.

 /s/ Myron H. Thompson
