IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS 

PINE BLUFF DIVISION 

KITAKA LAUDERDALE PETITIONER 

v. Case No. 5:13-cv-00040-KGB 

RAY HOBBS, Director, 

Arkansas Department of Correction RESPONDENT 

ORDER 

The Court has received the Proposed Findings and Recommendations from United States 

Magistrate Judge Jerome T. Kearney (Dkt. No. 32). Petitioner Kitaka Lauderdale has filed 

objections to the Proposed Findings and Recommendations (Dkt. No. 33), as well as a letter that 

the Court construes as supplemental objections (Dkt. No. 35). After careful review of the 

Proposed Findings and Recommendations and the timely objections thereto, as well as a de novo

review of the record, the Court concludes that the Proposed Findings and Recommendations 

should be, and are hereby, approved and adopted in their entirety as this Court’s findings in all 

respects. Petitioner’s petition is hereby dismissed with prejudice and the request for relief is 

denied. 

All remaining pending motions are denied as moot. The Court will not issue a certificate 

of appealability because Petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a 

constitutional right. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c). 

 Accordingly, judgment shall be entered dismissing with prejudice this case. 

 SO ORDERED this the 19th day of February, 2015.
