IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MONTANA BILLINGS DIVISION

STEPHEN PATRICK HAFFEY, CV 21-50-BLG-SPW Petitioner, vs. ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE’S FINDINGS STATE OF MONTANA PAROLE AND RECOMMENDATIONS AND PROBATION, Respondent.

The United States Magistrate Judge filed Findings and Recommendations on August 9, 2021. (Doc. 6). The Magistrate recommended that Petitioner Haffey’s Petition be dismissed for failure to prosecute. (Doc. 6 at 1). Pursuant to

(b)(1), parties are required to file written objections within 14 days of the filing of the Magistrate’s Findings and Recommendation. No objections were filed. When neither party objects, this Court reviews the Magistrate’s Findings and Recommendation for clear error. McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Bus. Mach., Inc.,

(9th Cir. 1981). 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). After reviewing the Findings and Recommendation, this Court does not find that the Magistrate committed clear error. IT IS ORDERED that the proposed Findings and Recommendations entered by the United States Magistrate Judge (Doc. 6) are ADOPTED IN FULL. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Stephen Haffey’s Petition (Doc. 1) is dismissed under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) for failure to prosecute. A certificate of appealability is DENIED. The Clerk of Court is directed to enter a judgment of dismissal by a separate document.

DATED this re day of August, 2021.
