ADAMS, et al., 14 Respondents. / 15 16 ORDER Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of 17 habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The matter was referred to a United States 18 Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 302. 19 On April 6, 2010, the magistrate judge filed findings and recommendations herein 20 which were served on petitioner and which contained notice to petitioner that any objections to 21 the findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen days. Even though the 22 magistrate judge recommended that petitioners motion to stay be granted, petitioner filed 23 objections to the findings and recommendations. At this point, the court is at a loss to figure out 24 just what it is that petitioner wants the court to do, but this may be explained by the fact that he 25 is suffering from a mental illness. 26 In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C) and Local Rule 1 Dockets.Justia.com 1 304, this court has conducted a de novo review of this case. Having carefully reviewed the 2 entire file, the court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by the record and 3 by proper analysis. 4 5 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that: 6 1. The findings and recommendations filed April 6, 2010, are adopted in full; and 7 2. Petitioner’s March 11, 2010 motion to stay (Docket No. 10) based on 8 King/Kelly is granted and this action is administratively stayed. 9 DATED: May 5, 2010 10 11 12 13 14 15 /watt0277.804hc 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 2
