1 10cv99 BTM(NLS)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WILLIAM ODESSA BROWN, II,

Petitioner,

Case No. 10cv99 BTM(NLS)

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND

RECOMMENDATION; GRANTING

MOTION TO DISMISS; AND

DENYING CERTIFICATE OF

APPEALABILITY

v.

LARRY SMALL, WARDEN,

Respondent.

William Odessa Brown, II, has filed a Petition For Writ of Habeas Corpus, alleging due

process violations resulting from the prison’s failure to restore lost credits forfeited due to an

administrative finding of guilt for a rule violation. In a Report and Recommendation filed on

July 19, 2010, Magistrate Judge Stormes recommends that Respondent’s motion to dismiss

be granted on the grounds that the Petition fails to challenge the legality or duration of

Petitioner’s confinement and is successive.

The Court has conducted a de novo review of the Report and Recommendation and

the relevant record and concludes that the Report and Recommendation properly applies the

law to the record. Therefore, the Court ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation

and ORDERS as follows:

(1) Respondent’s motion to dismiss is GRANTED;

(2) The Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus is DISMISSED; and
