ORDER

 This case is before the court on the Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge (Doc. #2), 

entered on June 24, 2014, and the Petitioner’s Argument in Opposition (Doc. #9), filed on July 

28, 2014. 

 After an independent evaluation and de novo review of the file in this case, the objection 

lacks merit and is hereby OVERRULED, because the Petitioner has failed to obtain the requisite 

order from the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals authorizing this court to consider a successive 

§ 2255 motion. The Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge is ADOPTED, and it is hereby 

 ORDERED that this case is DISMISSED with prejudice. Final Judgment will be entered 

accordingly. 

 DONE this 29th day of July, 2014.
