CR 03-0748

ORDER

On April 22, 2005 Petitioner filed a Motion To Vacate/Set Aside Sentence pursuant

to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (Doc. #13, CR 03-0748). On August 19, 2005 Magistrate Judge Aspey

issued a Report and Recommendation ("R&R") recommending that the motion be denied

(Doc. #17, CR 03-0748). No objections were filed by either party.

The Court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or

recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). It is "clear that the

district judge must review the magistrate judge's findings and recommendations de novo if

objection is made, but not otherwise." United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121

(9th Cir. 2003) (en banc) (emphasis in original); Schmidt v. Johnstone, 263 F. Supp. 2d 1219,

1126 (D. Ariz. 2003) ("Following Reyna-Tapia, this Court concludes that de novo review of

factual and legal issues is required if objections are made, 'but not otherwise."'). District

courts are not required to conduct "any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject

of an objection." Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). No objection having been

made, the Court will adopt the R&R in full. 

Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (Doc. #17, CR 03-0748) is

ADOPTED and that the Motion To Vacate (Doc. #13, CR 03-0748) is DENIED.

DATED this 20th day of July, 2006.
