IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA GAINESVILLE DIVISION

RALPH WARREN GOLDEN,

Petitioner,

v. Case No. 1:22-cv-146-AW-MAF

SECRETARY, DEP’T OF CORRECTIONS,

Respondent.

_______________________________/ ORDER OF DISMISSAL I have considered the magistrate judge’s August 2, 2022 Report and Recommendation. ECF No. 7. No objections have been filed. I agree with the magistrate judge that the § 2254 petition must be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. I now adopt and incorporate the Report and Recommendation into this order.1 The clerk will enter a judgment that says, “The § 2254 petition is dismissed for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction.” The clerk will then close the file. SO ORDERED on September 6, 2022. s/ Allen Winsor United States District Judge

1 Subject to one exception: I do not adopt the discussion regarding a certificate of appealability. That is not at issue here because the dismissal is for lack of subject- matter jurisdiction. See Osbourne v. Sec’y, Florida Dep't of Corr.,

(11th Cir. 2020).
