Case
Aviles Mendoza v. United States · No. 0:25-cv-01001
Judge
Nancy Brasel
Date
June 13, 2025

Background

The court received a May 12, 2025 report and recommendation from United States Magistrate Judge Elizabeth Cowan Wright. The opinion does not describe the underlying facts or the reasoning in that report.

Review of the Recommendation

No party objected to the report and recommendation. The court therefore reviewed it for clear error, meaning an obvious mistake apparent from the record. The court found no clear error and accepted the report and recommendation.

Ruling

The court denied Diomedez Daniel Aviles Mendoza’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, dismissed the action, and denied his application to proceed in forma pauperis, meaning without prepaying filing fees. The order does not state whether the dismissal was with or without prejudice.

Classification

This is a procedural order because the court adopted the report and recommendation after clear-error review without providing a merits analysis of the habeas petition.
