ORDER

Pending before the Court are Petitioner Osama Abuazulof’s petition for writ of habeas

corpus and United States Magistrate Judge Virginia A. Mathis’ Report and Recommendation

(“R&R”). Docs. ##1, 13. The R&R recommends that the Court deny the petition as moot

because petitioner was removed by air to his native land of Palestine on April 4, 2006.

Doc. #13 at 2. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that they had ten days to file

objections to the R&R and that the failure to timely file objections to any determination of

the Magistrate Judge would be considered a waiver of the right to review of such

determination. Id. at 2.

The parties did not file objections, which relieves the Court of its obligation to review

the R&R. See Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985)

(“[Section 636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the

subject of an objection.”); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) (“The district judge . . . shall make a de novo

determination . . . of any portion of the magistrate judge’s disposition to which specific

written objection has been made[.]”). The Court will accept the R&R and deny as moot the
