Opinion
CASE NO. 2:17-CV-755
02-12-2018
Magistrate Judge Elizabeth P. Deavers OPINION AND ORDER
On January 5, 2018, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation pursuant to Rule 4 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases in the United States District Courts recommending that this action be dismissed and that Petitioner's Motion for Default Judgment be denied as moot. (ECF No. 7.) Although the parties were advised of the right to object to the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, and of the consequences of failing to do so, no objections have been filed.
The Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 7) is ADOPTED and AFFIRMED. This action is hereby DISMISSED.
Petitioner's Motion for Default Judgment (ECF No. 6) is DENIED.
Petitioner has waived his right to appeal by failing to file objections. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947 (6th Cir. 1981). Therefore, the Court DECLINES to issue a certificate of appealability.
The Clerk is DIRECTED to enter final judgment.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
