(Doc. 2). Although the report advised the petitioner of his right to object, no objections have been filed; the deadline to object has expired. (Doc. 4). Accordingly, there is nothing to contradict the conclusion that this court lacks jurisdiction over the petitioner’s claims. After careful consideration of the record in this case and the magistrate judge’s report, the court ADOPTS the report and ACCEPTS the recommendation. (Doc. 2). Consistent with the recommendation, this matter will be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. As noted in the report and recommendation, a ruling on a certificate of appealability is not required under these circumstances. A separate order will be entered.
