GREEN, Petitioner. ORDER United States Magistrate Judge John T. Johnston entered his findings and recommendations in this case on June 12, 2017, recommending denial of Petitioner Jeremiah C. Green's ("Green") petition for name change. Green failed to timely object to the findings and recommendations, and so waived the right to de nova review of the record. 28 U.S.C. ยง 636(b)(l).
