UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

ANTONIO ESPINOZA, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

WARDEN, CALIFORNIA STATE 

PRISON AT SAN QUENTIN, 

Respondent. 

No. 2:94-cv-1665 KJM DB P 

ORDER 

 Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding through counsel, has filed an application for a writ 

of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate 

Judge as provided by 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 

 On October 31, 2022, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations, which 

were served on all parties and which contained notice to all parties that any objections to the 

findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. Neither party has filed 

objections to the findings and recommendations. 

 The court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v. United States, 

602 F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are reviewed 

de novo. See Robbins v. Carey, 481 F.3d 1143, 1147 (9th Cir. 2007) (“[D]eterminations of law 

by the magistrate judge are reviewed de novo by both the district court and [the appellate] court

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 

 1. The findings and recommendations filed October 31, 2022 are adopted in full; and 

 2. The stay of these proceedings is lifted. 

DATED: January 12, 2023.
