Background
Jacobo Peguero-Carela filed a petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, a federal procedure for challenging certain forms of custody or detention. The opinion states that Peguero-Carela represented himself. The respondent was identified as J.L. Jaimison, Warden.
The court referred the petition to Magistrate Judge Katharine H. Parker. After receiving the government’s opposition and Peguero-Carela’s reply, Judge Parker issued a report and recommendation advising that the petition be denied.
Court’s Review
Peguero-Carela received notice of his right to object to the report and recommendation but filed no objections. Because no objections were filed, the court reviewed the recommendation for clear error, meaning an obvious mistake apparent from the record. The opinion states that the court found no clear error in Judge Parker’s recommendation.
Ruling
Judge Analisa Torres adopted Judge Parker’s report and recommendation in its entirety and denied Peguero-Carela’s petition. The clerk was directed to close the case and mail a copy of the order to Peguero-Carela. This order does not explain the underlying reason Judge Parker recommended denying the petition.
