MEMORANDUM OPINION

The magistrate judge filed his amended report and recommendation on December 7, 2018, recommending dismissal of petitioner's 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for habeas corpus relief. (Doc. 34). Petitioner, who is represented by counsel, filed pro se objections to the report and recommendation. (Doc. 35). Because the petitioner is represented by counsel, his pro se filing is due to be and hereby is STRICKEN.1 Having now carefully considered de novo all the materials in the court file, including the report and recommendation, the court finds that the magistrate judge's report should be ADOPTED and the recommendation ACCEPTED.

A separate order will be entered in conformity with this Memorandum Opinion that will DENY and DISMISS WITH PREJUDICE the claim for habeas corpus relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 in the above-styled cause.

DONE and ORDERED.

FootNotes


1. Even if the pro se objections were due to be considered, the argument offered by the petitioner is little more than a concession that his sentence has been correctly calculated, with a request that he nonetheless be released prior to the expiration of the sentence.
