ORDER

After an independent and de novo review of the entire record, the Court concurs with the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation. Dkt. No. 12. Petitioner Wayne Baptiste ("Baptiste") filed Objections to the Report and Recommendation. Dkt. No. 13.

In his Objections, Baptiste finds fault with the Magistrate Judge's conclusions regarding the due process clause and its attendant requirements. Id. at pp. 1-3. However, Baptiste overlooks the Magistrate Judge's analysis of the due process requirements and how those requirements were met during the disciplinary proceedings. Dkt. No. 11, pp. 8-14. In his Objections, Baptiste states simply that the Magistrate Judge analysis and findings are "wrong," but offers nothing to support that position.

Thus, the Court OVERRULES Baptiste's Objections and ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation as the opinion of the Court. The Court GRANTS Respondent's Motion to Dismiss, DENIES Baptiste's Petition, DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to enter the appropriate judgment of dismissal and CLOSE this case, and DENIES Baptiste in forma pauperis status on appeal.

SO ORDERED.
