Presently before the Court is the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation ("R&R") that this Court dismiss Defendant John Katz's motion to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 [Doc. 35]. A district judge has broad discretion to accept, reject, or modify a magistrate judge's proposed findings and recommendations. United States v. Raddatz, 447 U.S. 667, 680 (1980). The Court notes that no objections have been filed in response to the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation. Therefore, in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and Rule 59 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, the Court has reviewed the Magistrate Judge§s Recommendation for clear error and finds none.

For the reasons stated in the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, the Court DENINES Defendant's motion to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 [Doc.37]. Defendant is denied a certificate of applealabilitiy.
