ORDER

The court has before it Petitioner’s amended petition for writ of habeas corpus

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (doc. 9), Respondents’ answer (doc. 17), and Petitioner’s reply

(doc. 18). We also have before us the Report and Recommendation of the United States

Magistrate Judge recommending that the amended petition be denied and dismissed with

prejudice (doc. 21). No objection to the Report and Recommendation was filed and the time

for doing so has expired.

Pursuant to Rule 8(b), Rules Governing § 2254 Cases, we accept the recommended

decision of the Magistrate Judge (doc. 21). Therefore, IT IS ORDERED DENYING and

DISMISSING WITH PREJUDICE the amended petition for writ of habeas corpus (doc.

9). 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED DENYING a certificate of appealability and leave

to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal because dismissal of the habeas petition is justified
