No. CIV 24-360-TUC-CKJ (MAA) 

ORDER

On October 28, 2024, Magistrate Michael A. Ambri issued a Report and

Recommendation (Doc. 11) in which he recommends the Court deny the Petition Under 28

U.S.C. § 2254 for a Writ of Habeas Corpus by a Person in State Custody (Non-Death

Penalty) ("Petition") (Doc. 1) filed by Petitioner Shannon L. Ramsland ("Ramsland") as

Ramsland is not entitled to have "his First Step Act time credits applied to his sentence

because he does not have a low or minimum recidivism risk score." R&R (Doc. 11, p. 5).

The Report and Recommendation advised the parties that, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §

636(b)(1) and Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b)(2), any party may serve and file written objections within

fourteen (14) days after being served with a copy of the Report and Recommendation. No

objections have been filed within the time provided by 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). 

A review of the docket indicates the mailing which included the Report and

Recommendation has been returned as "refused/unable to forward." Further, as asserted in

the Answer and confirmed by a review of the Bureau of Prisons ("BOP") locator, Ramsland

is not in BOP custody. The Court has previously advised Ramsland he "must file and serve

a notice of a change of address in accordance with Rule 83.3(d) of the Local Rules of Civil

Procedure. Petitioner must not include a motion for other relief with a notice of change of

address. Failure to comply may result in dismissal of this action." July 29, 2024, Order

(Doc. 3, p.2). As Ramsland has not submitted a Notice of Change of Address, the Court will

review the Petition, Answer, and Report and Recommendation despite the docket not

showing Ramsland has received a copy of the Report and Recommendation.

After an independent review, the Court finds it is appropriate to adopt the Report and

Recommendation and deny the Petition.

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED:

1. The Report and Recommendation (Doc. 11) is ADOPTED.

2. The Petition Under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 for a Writ of Habeas Corpus by a Person

in State Custody (Non-Death Penalty) (Doc. 1) is DENIED.

3. The Clerk of the Court shall enter judgment and shall then close its file in this

matter. 

4. Pursuant to Rule 11(a) of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases, in the event

Petitioner files an appeal, the Court declines to issue a certificate of appealability because

reasonable jurists could not "debate whether (or, for that matter, agree that) the petition

should have been resolved in a different manner or that the issues presented were 'adequate

to deserve encouragement to proceed further'." See Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484

(2000); see also Close v. Thomas, 653 F.3d 970, 974 n. 2 (9th Cir. 2011) ("COA is not

required to appeal the denial of a § 2241 petition filed by a person in federal custody").

DATED this 9th day of December, 2024.
