LARRY ALAN BURNS, District Judge.
Petitioner Dwight Vanzandt, a prisoner in state custody, filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636, this matter was referred to Magistrate Judge David Bartick for report and recommendation. On May 14, 2014, Judge Bartick issued his report and recommendation (the "R&R"), recommending that the petition be denied as time-barred. The R&R found that a gap of 108 days between rounds of California state habeas review was unreasonable, and this is well-supported by binding precedent. The R&R also found that the deficiencies Vanzandt identified in the prison library system did not amount to an "extraordinary circumstance," noting that they hadn't interfered with his ability to file other cogent habeas petitions in a timely fashion. The R&R therefore concluded Vanzandt is not entitled to equitable tolling.
The R&R informed the parties that any objections to the R&R were to be filed by June 6, 2014, and that failure to file objections when due could constitute a waiver of issues not objected to. No objections were filed. The Court in particular notes that failure to file timely objections waives any objection Vanzandt may have had to the R&R's factual findings, such as its recitations of the procedural history, its determination that Vanzandt waited 108 days between rounds of state habeas review, and the fact that prison library conditions did not cause this delay. The R&R's account of the procedural history shows that at the end of 108 days, Vanzandt filed
A district court has jurisdiction to review a Magistrate Judge's report and recommendation on dispositive matters. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). "The district judge must determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge's disposition that has been properly objected to." Id. "A judge of the court may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). This section does not require some lesser review by the district court when no objections are filed. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-50 (1985). The "statute makes it clear that the district judge must review the magistrate judge's findings and recommendations de novo if objection is made, but not otherwise." United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc).
The Court has reviewed the R&R, finds it to be correct, and
