MINUTES OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA

DENZIL WILSON v. KATRINA KANE

THE HONORABLE JOHN W. SEDWICK CASE NO. 2:07-cv-02102 (JWS)

PROCEEDINGS: ORDER FROM CHAMBERS Date: July 22, 2008

Denzil Wilson filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C.

§ 2241 at docket 1. Following briefing by the parties, the magistrate judge filed a report

at docket 13 in which she recommended that the petition be denied. Wilson filed

objections at docket 14 which, among other things, included an assertion that he had

filed a petition for a writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court, which he

appeared to contend meant that he could not be removed pending the outcome in the

Supreme Court. Not having seen such an argument raised before, this court file an

order at docket 15 which asked for a response to that particular argument. The court's

order also indicated that respondent might choose to respond to other aspects of

Wilson's objections should she wish to do so. A timely response was filed at docket 16. 

This court has now reviewed the file, including the objections at docket 14 and the

response at docket 16.

In a matter such as this, the district court reviews the recommended findings of

fact from the magistrate judge to which an objection is taken and all of her

recommended conclusions of law de novo. This court reviews the recommended

findings of fact from the magistrate judge as to which no objection is taken for clear

error. Having applied that standard of review, this court finds that all of the

recommendations from the magistrate judge are correct. In addition, the unusual

argument advanced by Wilson based upon his having filed a petition in the Supreme

Court lacks merit for the reasons articulated in the response at docket 16. 

For the preceding reasons, this court adopts the report and recommendations at

docket 13. Based thereon, the petition is DENIED. The Clerk will please enter

judgment accordingly.
