Trial Court Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS SHERMAN DIVISION MELVIN CADE, #1575347 § § VS. § CIVIL ACTION NO. 4:19cv917 § DIRECTOR, TDCJ § ORDER OF DISMISSAL This case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Kimberly C. Priest Johnson, who issued a Report and Recommendation. (Dkt. # 12). The Magistrate Judge concluded in the Report and Recommendation that because Petitioner’s claims of newly discovered evidence were, or could have been, raised in Petitioner’s previous § 2254 petition, the instant petition is successive. The Magistrate Judge found that this Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction to consider Petitioner’s current petition unless he receives permission from the Fifth Circuit to file a successive petition.

28 U.S.C. § 2244

(3)(A). See In re Epps,

127 F.3d 364

(5th Cir. 1997). Petitioner has not shown he has permission from the Fifth Circuit. The Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, which contains proposed findings of fact and recommendations for the disposition of such action, has been presented for consideration. No objections having been timely filed, the Court concludes the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge are correct, and adopts the same as the findings and conclusions of the Court.

1 Accordingly, it is ORDERED the petition for writ of habeas corpus (#1) is DISMISSED without prejudice. It is further ORDERED all motions by either party not previously ruled on are hereby DENIED.
