UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:23-cv-00379 Kevin James Manning, Petitioner, v. Warden Enge et al., Respondents.

ORDER Petitioner Kevin James Manning, then an inmate of the Hen- derson County Jail proceeding pro se and i forma pauperis, filed this habeas action pursuant to 28 U.S.C § 2254. The case was re- ferred to a magistrate judge pursuant to

(b). On January 16, 2025, the magistrate judge issued a report and recommendation that the habeas petition be denied and that this case be dismissed without prejudice for failure to exhaust state remedies. Doc. 37. A copy of the report was mailed to the peti- tioner. Doc. 38. He received it on March 19 and did not file written objections. Doc. 41. When no party objects to the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, the court reviews it only for clear error. See Douglass United Servs. Auto. Ass’n,

(5th Cir. 1996). Having reviewed the magistrate judge’s report, and being satisfied that it contains no clear error, the court accepts its find- ings and recommendation. Accordingly, the habeas petition is de- nied and this case dismissed without prejudice. A certificate of appeal is denied. Any pending motions are denied as moot. So ordered by the court on July 1, 2025.
