In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636

(b)(1)(C), this Court has conducted a de novo review of the case. 

Having carefully reviewed the entire file, including Petitioner's

objections, the Court concludes that the Magistrate Judge's

Findings and Recommendation are supported by the record and proper

analysis. Petitioner's objections present no grounds for

questioning the Magistrate Judge's analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Findings and Recommendation, filed September 11,

2007, are ADOPTED IN FULL; 

2. Respondent's motion to dismiss the instant petition as

untimely, filed July 11, 2007, is GRANTED;

3. The Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus is therefore

DISMISSED, with prejudice; and,

4. The Clerk of Court enter judgment for Respondent.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: November 8, 2007 /s/ Oliver W. Wanger
