Trial Court Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF WEST VIRGINIA

BECKLEY DIVISION

NYTERIA GREEN,

Petitioner,

v. CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:16-cv-07221 (Criminal No. 5:15-cr-00085-2)

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Respondent.

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

On August 4, 2016, the Petitioner, proceeding pro se, filed a motion under

28 U.S.C. § 2255

to vacate, set aside or correct sentence (Document 86). By Standing Order (Document 87) entered on August 5, 2016, this matter was referred to the Honorable Dwane L. Tinsley, United States Magistrate Judge, for submission to this Court of proposed findings of fact and recommendation for disposition, pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 636

. On May 29, 2019, the Magistrate Judge submitted a Proposed Findings and Recommendation (Document 114) wherein it is recommended that this Court deny the Petitioner’s § 2555 motion and dismiss this matter from the Court’s docket. Objections to the Magistrate Judge’s Proposed Findings and Recommendation were due by June 17, 2019, and none were filed by either party.1

1 The docket reflects that the Proposed Findings and Recommendation mailed to the Petitioner was returned as undeliverable on June 10, 2019. 1 The Court is not required to review, under a de novo or any other standard, the factual or legal conclusions of the magistrate judge as to those portions of the findings or recommendation to which no objections are addressed. Thomas v. Arn,

474 U.S. 140, 150

(1985). Failure to file timely objections constitutes a waiver of de novo review and the Petitioner’s right to appeal this Court’s Order.

28 U.S.C. § 636

(b)(1); see also Snyder v. Ridenour,

889 F.2d 1363, 1366

(4th Cir. 1989); United States v. Schronce,

727 F.2d 91, 94

(4th Cir. 1984). Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS and incorporates herein the findings and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge as contained in the Proposed Findings and Recommendation, and ORDERS that the Petitioner’s § 2555 motion (Document 86) be DENIED and this matter be DISMISSED from the Court’s docket. The Court DIRECTS the Clerk to send a certified copy of this Order to Magistrate Judge Tinsley, counsel of record, and any unrepresented party. ENTER: July 1, 2019 Dire.
