Farris v. Gunther

6 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 7 FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA

9 Tiran C. Farris, No. CV-24-02836-PHX-GMS 10 Petitioner, ORDER v. Jason Gunther, 13 Respondent.

15 Pending before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of Magistrate Judge Deborah M. Fine (Doc. 12) regarding petitioner’s Writ of Habeas Corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (Doc. 1). The R&R recommends that the Petition be dismissed without prejudice. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that they had fourteen days to file objections to the R&R. (R&R at 13 (citing 28 U.S.C. § 636(b); Fed. R.Civ.P. 6, 72; United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003). No objections were filed.

22 Because the parties did not file objections, the court need not review any of the Magistrate Judge’s determinations on dispositive matters. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003); Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985) (“[Section 636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection.”). The absence of a timely objection also means that error may not be assigned on appeal to any defect in the rulings of the Magistrate Judge on any non-dispositive matters. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(a) (“A || party may serve and file objections to the order within 14 days after being served with a 2|| copy [of the magistrate’s order]. A party may not assign as error a defect in the order not || timely objected to.”); Simpson v. Lear Astronics Corp., 77 F.3d 1170, 1174 (9th Cir. 1996); 4|| Phillips v. GMC, 289 F.3d 1117, 1120-21 (9th Cir. 2002).

5 Notwithstanding the absence of an objection, the court has reviewed the R&R and finds that it is well taken. The court will accept the R&R and dismiss the Petition. See 28 7\| U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (stating that the district court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole || or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate’).

9 IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of the || Magistrate Judge (Doc. 12) is accepted.

11 IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court enter judgment || dismissing Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (Doc. 1) without prejudice. The Clerk shall terminate this action.

14 Any Certificate of Appealability is denied because Petitioner has not made a || substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.

16 Dated this 29th day of May, 2025.
