IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA
Roberto Campos,
Petitioner,
v.
Ryan Thornell, et al.,
Respondents.
No. CV-25-08083-PCT-DWL
ORDER
Pending before the Court are Petitioner’s Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (Doc. 1) and the Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of
the United States Magistrate Judge (Doc. 17). The R&R, which was issued on March 16,
2026, recommends that the petition be dismissed with prejudice and further provides that
“[t]he Parties shall have 14 days from the date of service of a copy of this recommendation
within which to file specific written objections with the Court.” (Doc. 17 at 8.)
Here, no such objections have been filed and the 14-day deadline has expired. Thus,
the Court adopts the R&R. See, e.g., Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-50 (1985) (“It does
not appear that Congress intended to require district court review of a magistrate’s factual
or legal conclusions, under a de novo or any other standard, when neither party objects to
those findings.”); Schmidt v. Johnstone, 263 F. Supp. 2d 1219, 1226 (D. Ariz. 2003) (“[N]o
review is required of a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation unless objections are
filed.”). See also United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003)
(“[T]he district judge must review the magistrate judge’s findings and recommendations

de novo if objection is made, but not otherwise.”).
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that the R&R’s recommended disposition (Doc. 17) is accepted,
that the Petition (Doc. 1) is dismissed with prejudice, and that the Clerk of Court shall
enter judgment accordingly.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a certificate of appealability and leave to
proceed in forma pauperis on appeal are denied because dismissal is justified by a plain
procedural bar and jurists of reason would not find the procedural ruling debatable.
Dated this 13th day of April, 2026.
