UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CHARLES EASTER,

Petitioner,

Case No. 15-cv-65 DMS (KSC)

ORDER (1) ADOPTING 

MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S 

REPORT AND 

RECOMMENDATION AND (2) 

DENYING PETITION

v.

SCOTT KERNAN, Secretary,

Respondent.

On January 12, 2015, Petitioner Charles Easter, a state prisoner proceeding 

pro se, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On 

March 14, 2015, Magistrate Judge Karen S. Crawford issued a Report and 

Recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that the Court deny the petition. Neither

side has filed objections to the R&R, and the time for doing so has expired. 

This Court, having reviewed de novo the Magistrate Judge’s R&R, adopts the 

Magistrate Judge’s recommendation in full and DENIES the petition for a writ of

habeas corpus. The Court finds no basis for a certificate of appealability. The Clerk 

of Court shall enter judgment accordingly, and terminate this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 21, 2016 _____________________________

The Honorable Dana M. Sabraw
