IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FIL E D FOR THE DISTRICT OF MONTANA SEP 16 2019 MISSOULA DIVISION Clerk US. □□□ District OF □□□□□ Missoula GARY LEE ENZLER, CV 19-39-H-DLC_JTJ Petitioner, VS. ORDER LYNN GUYER; ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE STATE OF MONTANA, Respondents.

On July 31, 2019 United States Magistrate Judge John T. Johnston entered his Order and Findings and Recommendation recommending that Montana State Prisoner Gary Lee Enzler’s (“Enzler”) petition for habeas corpus under

be dismissed as improperly filed. (Doc. 9.) Enzler timely objects and so is entitled to de novo review of those findings to which he specifically objects.

(b)(1)(C). This Court reviews for clear error those findings to which

no party objects. United States v. Reyna-Tapia,

(9th Cir. 2003); Thomas v. Arn,

(1985). Clear error exists if the Court is left with a “definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed.” United States v. Syrax,

(9th Cir. 2000) (citations omitted).

DISCUSSION Judge Johnston recommended dismissing Enzler’s petition as improperly filed after determining that Enzler’s claim should be brought under

as Enzler claims he is not receiving adequate mental health care. (Doc. 9 at 4.) In

way of objection, Enzler files two documents. In the first he details his concerns with the Findings and Recommendations by hand written annotation. (Doc. 9.) His second supplemental filing is a one-page handwritten document. (Doc. The Court has diligently reviewed both documents and done its best to discern what it can from each. While the substance of Enzler’s objections are largely unintelligible as a result of his penmanship, the gist is clear. Enzler is disappointed by the recommendation and conveys strong personal feelings towards the Magistrate Judge. Nevertheless, the Court is not able to discern any factual or legal objection directed towards Judge Johnston’s determination that Enzler has raised an Eighth Amendment claim which must be brought under section 1983. Therefore, reviewing for clear error and finding none, IT IS ORDERED that Judge Johnston’s Findings and Recommendation (Doc. 9) is ADOPTED in full. 1. The Petition (Doc. 1) is DISMISSED as improperly filed under 28 U.S.C, § 2254.

2. The Clerk of Court is directed to enter, by separate document, a judgment of dismissal. 3. A certificate of appealability is DENIED.
