Background
Javece L. Wilson filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, a request for a court order addressing allegedly unlawful custody, against the Bureau of Prisons and the Department of Justice. The opinion adopting the recommendation does not describe the petition’s underlying claims or the reasoning in the recommendation.
Court’s Review
United States Magistrate Judge Katherine M. Menendez issued a report and recommendation on November 17, 2021. No objections were filed. Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b), the district court therefore reviewed the recommendation for clear error, meaning an obvious mistake apparent from the record. The court reviewed the recommendation and found no clear error.
Ruling
Judge Wilhelmina M. Wright adopted the November 17, 2021 report and recommendation. The court denied Wilson’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus and dismissed the matter with prejudice. The opinion does not independently explain the underlying basis for those rulings beyond adopting the recommendation.
