MATTHEW W. BRANN, District Judge.

Dominic Black filed this 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition asserting that the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole ("Parole Board") violated his constitutional rights when it revoked his parole and calculated Black's new maximum sentence date.1 In January 2019, Magistrate Judge Martin C.

Consequently, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
