28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). Portions of the report or proposed findings or recommendations that are not the subject of a timely objection will be accepted by the Court unless they are clearly erroneous or contrary to law. See United States v. Wilson,
864 F.2d 1219, 1221(Sth Cir. 1989). After due consideration and having conducted a de novo review, the Court finds that Petitioner’s objections should be OVERRULED.

ADOPTED as the findings and conclusions of the Court. For the reasons stated therein, the Court ORDERS that Petitioner’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus under
28 U.S.C. § 2254be DENIED and DISMISSED with prejudice. Pursuant to Rule 22 of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and
28 U.S.C. § 2253(c), this Court finds that a certificate of appealability is denied. For the reasons set forth in the United States Magistrate Judge’s Findings, Conclusions, and Recommendation, Movant has failed to show that a reasonable jurist would find: (1) this Court’s “assessment of the constitutional claims debatable or wrong,” or (2) “it debatable whether the petition states a valid claim of the denial of a constitutional right” and “debatable whether [this Court] was correct in its procedural ruling.” Slack v.
