ORDER
AMUL R. THAPAR, District Judge.
Darrin Renfro moves to vacate his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255. R. 190. In his motion, Renfro argues that his lawyer was constitutionally ineffective by failing to request two reductions to Renfro's sentence—one for playing a minor role in the offense and the other for accepting responsibility. Id. at 1-4. Renfro also asks the Court to reduce his sentence for his "post-sentence rehabilitation" efforts. Id. at 4-5. Magistrate Judge Candace J. Smith has reviewed Renfro's motion and filed a Report and Recommendation (R&R) that the Court deny Renfro's motion as untimely—explaining that Section 2255's one-year statute of limitations ran over six years ago. R. 194 at 6-7; see 28 U.S.C. § 2255(f). Neither Renfro nor the United States has filed any objections to the R&R, and the time to do so has expired. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 59(b)(2).
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the R&R, R. 194, is ADOPTED as the opinion of the Court. Renfro's motion to vacate his sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255, R. 190, is DENIED. The Court will issue a separate judgment.
