MARCO A. HERNÁNDEZ, District Judge.
Magistrate Judge Janice Stewart issued a Findings & Recommendation [51] on September 30, 2015, recommending that Petitioner Brett William Seaton's Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus [21] be denied. Mr. Seaton has timely filed objections [53] to the Findings & Recommendation. The matter is now before me pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b).
When a party objects to any portion of the Magistrate Judge's Findings & Recommendation, the district court must make a de novo determination of that portion of the Magistrate Judge's report. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1);
I have carefully considered Petitioner's objections and conclude there is no basis to modify Judge Stewart's Recommendation that Mr. Seaton's petition for writ of habeas corpus should be denied. I have also reviewed the pertinent portions of the record de novo and find no errors in the Judge Stewart's Findings & Recommendation.
The Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Stewart's Findings & Recommendation [51], and therefore, Petitioner's Amended Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus [21] is DENIED, and this action is dismissed with prejudice. The Court declines to issue a Certificate of Appealability because Petitioner has not made a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
