OPINION

Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, plaintiff filed this 

lawsuit asserting that his former court-appointed 

appellate attorney represented him poorly and seeking 

exoneration and damages. This lawsuit is now before 

the court on the recommendation of the United States 

Magistrate Judge that plaintiff’s case be dismissed

with prejudice due to the passage of the statute of 

limitations on the claim. There are no objections to 

the recommendation. After an independent and de novo 

Case 3:15-cv-00669-MHT-GMB Document 9 Filed 06/16/16 Page 1 of 2
review of the record, the court concludes that the 

magistrate judge’s recommendation should be adopted.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 16th day of June, 2016.
