Nicholson v. Warden, Noble Correctional Institution

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO

EASTERN DIVISION

Lloyd Nicholson,

Case No. 2:19-cv-4745

Petitioner, Judge Michael H. Watson

Magistrate Judge Kimberly A. Jolson v.

Warden, Noble

Correctional Institution,

Respondent.

ORDER

On September 18, 2020, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that the petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 be dismissed. ECF No. 19. Although the parties were advised of the right to file objections to the R&R, and of the consequences of failing to do so, no objections have been filed.

The R&R, ECF No. 19, is ADOPTED and AFFIRMED. This action is hereby DISMISSED.

Petitioner has waived the right to appeal by failing to file objections. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947 (6th Cir. 1981). The Court therefore DECLINES to issue a certificate of appealability.

IT IS SO ORDERED. /s/ Michael H. Watson______________ MICHAEL H. WATSON, JUDGE
