WO

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA

Stephen Ross Raboy,

Petitioner,

v. 

United States of America,

Respondent.

CV-16-02106-PHX-JAT

CR-09-00678-PHX-JAT

ORDER 

Pending before the Court is Movant’s Successive Motion to Vacate, Set Aside or 

Correct Sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (Doc. 10). The Magistrate Judge issued a 

Report and Recommendation (R&R) (Doc. 23) recommending that the Motion be denied. 

Neither party has filed objections to the R&R. Accordingly, the Court hereby 

accepts the R&R. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985) (finding that district courts 

are not required to conduct “any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an 

objection” (emphasis added)); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 

2003) (en banc) (“statute makes it clear that the district judge must review the magistrate 

judge’s findings and recommendations de novo if objection is made, but not otherwise”

(emphasis in original)); see also Schmidt v. Johnstone, 263 F.Supp.2d 1219, 1226 (D. Ariz. 

2003).

Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 

23) is accepted and adopted;

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Movant’s Successive Motion to Vacate, Set 

Aside or Correct Sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (Doc. 10) is denied and dismissed 

with prejudice; the Clerk of the Court shall enter judgment accordingly.

IT IS FINALLY ORDERED that a Certificate of Appealability and leave to 

proceed in forma pauperis on appeal are denied because jurists of reason would not find 

this Court’s procedural ruling debatable.

Dated this 7th day of February, 2020.
