Petitioner did not file objections at that time, but in his April

21, 2005 pleading, objected to these findings and

recommendations. 

On March 1, 2005, the magistrate judge filed findings

and recommendations herein 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 twenty days. 

On March 21, 2005, petitioner was granted an additional thirty

days in which to file objections. Petitioner has filed

objections to the findings and recommendations.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C.

§ 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 72-304, this court has conducted a

de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the

entire file, the court finds the findings and recommendations to

be supported by the record and by proper analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The findings and recommendations filed March 1,

2005, and September 6, 2002, are adopted in full; and

2. Petitioner’s application for a writ of habeas

corpus is denied.
