ORDER

The court has before it petitioner’s petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 2254 (doc. 1), respondents’ answer (doc. 15), and the Report and Recommendation

of the United States Magistrate Judge, recommending that the petition for writ of habeas

corpus be denied and dismissed with prejudice (doc. 16). The petitioner did not object to the

Report and Recommendation and the time for doing so has expired.

Pursuant to Rule 8(b), Rules Governing § 2254 Cases, we accept the recommended

decision of the United States Magistrate Judge. Therefore, IT IS ORDERED DENYING

AND DISMISSING with prejudice the petition for writ of habeas corpus (doc. 1).

Because petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional

right and because the dismissal of the petition is justified by a plain procedural bar and jurists

of reason would not find the procedural ruling debatable, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED

DENYING a certificate of appealability and leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal.

DATED this 25th day of January, 2012.
