UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CECIL JEROME HATCHETT,

Petitioner,

v.

KEN CLARK,

Respondent.

No. 2:19-cv-01159 AC P

ORDER

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of habeas 

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The matter was referred to a United States Magistrate 

Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302.

On September 24, 2019, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein 

which were served on petitioner and which contained notice to petitioner that any objections to 

the findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. Petitioner has filed 

objections to the findings and recommendations, ECF No. 15, as well as a proposed Second 

Amended Petition, ECF No. 16.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 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.
