ORDER

Pending before the Court is a Report and Recommendation issued by United States Magistrate Judge Velasco that recommends granting Petitioner's Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. §2241. A review of the record reflects that the parties have not filed any objections to the Report and Recommendation and the time to file objections has expired. As such, the Court will not consider any objections or new evidence.

The Court has reviewed the record and concludes that Magistrate Judge Velasco's recommendations are not clearly erroneous. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72; Johnson v. Zema Systems Corp., 170 F.3d 734, 739 (7th Cir. 1999); Conley v. Crabtree, 14 F.Supp.2d 1203, 1204 (D. Or. 1998).

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:

(1) Magistrate Judge Velasco's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 43) is accepted and adopted.

(2) Petitioner's separate motion for release during the pendency of the habeas proceeding1 (Doc. 34) is denied without prejudice.

(3) Petitioner's Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus under 28 U.S.C. §2241 (Doc. 1) is granted to the extent this matter is returned to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Washington for resentencing.2

FootNotes


1. To the extent Petitioner objects to not being immediately released, Petitioner's objection is denied.
2. Petitioner's motion to summarily adopt the Report and Recommendation and for an expedited ruling (Doc. 45) is granted only to the extent consistent with this Order.
