MADELINE HUGHES HAIKALA, District Judge.
On November 8, 2017, the magistrate judge entered a report in which she recommended that the Court dismiss as unexhausted and procedurally defaulted petitioner Marcus Pierre Jackson's 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for writ of habeas corpus. (Doc. 17, p. 7). The magistrate judge also recommended that the Court deny a certificate of appealability pursuant to Rule 11 of the Rules Governing 2254 Proceedings. (Doc. 17, p. 7). The magistrate judge informed the parties of their right to file objections within 14 days. (Doc. 17, pp. 7-8). To date, no party has filed objections to the report and recommendation.
A district court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). A district court reviews legal conclusions in a report de novo and reviews for plain error factual findings to which no objection is made. Garvey v. Vaughn, 993 F.2d 776, 779 n.9 (11th Cir. 1993); see also LoConte v. Dugger, 847 F.2d 745, 749 (11th Cir. 1988); Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 Fed. Appx. 781, 784 (11th Cir. 2006).
Having reviewed the amended habeas petition (Doc. 4), the parties' submissions (Docs. 10, 10-1 through 10-11, 15, and 16), and the report and recommendation, the Court finds no misstatements of law in the report and no plain error in the magistrate judge's description of the relevant facts.
The Court will issue a final separate order dismissing Mr. Jackson's petition as unexhausted and procedurally defaulted.
