Case No. 2:23-cv-01757-ACA-SGC

MEMORANDUM OPINION

In December 2023, Petitioner Richard L. Wilson filed a petition for a writ of 

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On September 27, 2024, the magistrate 

judge entered a report recommending the court deny Mr. Wilson’s petition because 

it was not timely filed. (Doc. 5). The report further recommended a certificate of 

appealability be denied. (Id.). Mr. Wilson was advised of his right to file objections 

within 14 days. (Id.). The deadline has passed, but the court has not received any 

objections or any other communication from Mr. Wilson. 

After careful consideration of the record in this case, including the magistrate 

judge’s report, the court ADOPTS the report and ACCEPTS the recommendation. 

Consistent with that recommendation, the court will deny and dismiss Mr. Wilson’s

claims as untimely, and the court will deny a certificate of appealability. The court 

will enter a separate order.
