IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

EASTERN DIVISION 

STEPHEN WAYNE NORWOOD PETITIONER 

v. Case No. 2:12-cv-00206-KGB 

JOHN FOX, Interim Warden, 

FCI—Forrest City RESPONDENT 

ORDER 

 The Court has received Proposed Findings and Recommendations from United States 

Magistrate Judge Jerome T. Kearney (Dkt. No. 8). Petitioner Stephen Wayne Norwood has 

objected (Dkt. No. 9) and also filed a motion to amend his objections (Dkt. No. 10) and a motion 

to clarify the pleadings (Dkt. No. 11). The Court grants Mr. Norwood’s motion to amend his 

objections (Dkt. No. 10) and has considered his initial and amended objections. After careful 

consideration of the Proposed Findings and Recommendations and Mr. Norwood’s objections, as 

well as a de novo review of the record, the Court concludes that the Proposed Findings and 

Recommendations should be, and hereby are, approved and adopted in their entirety as this 

Court’s findings in all respects. The Court dismisses with prejudice Mr. Norwood’s petition for 

writ of habeas corpus. The Court denies as moot Mr. Norwood’s request to clarify the pleadings 

(Dkt. No. 11). 

 SO ORDERED this the 30th day of March, 2015.
