Docket No. 1. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge J. Boone Baxter in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636. On April 28, 2026, the m agistrate judge issued a r eport and recommendation, recommending the above petition be dismissed as moot. Docket No. 9. A copy of the report and recommendation was sent to Petitioner at his last known address, return receipt requested, but was returned as undeliverable.1 Docket No. 10. As of this date of this Order, no objections have been filed with respect to the April 28, 2026 report and recommendation. Because no objections have been filed, Petitioner is barred from de novo review by the District Court of the m agistrate judge’s findings, conclusions, and recommendations, and, except upon grounds of plain error, from appellate review of the unobjected-to factual findings and legal conclusions accepted and adopted by the District Court. 1 Eastern District of Texas Local Rule CV -11(d) requires that a pro se litigant must provide the Court with a physical address and is responsible for keeping the Clerk of Court advised in writing of his current physical address.

July 31, 2021). The Court reviewed the pleadings in this case and the r eport and recommendation of the magistrate judge and determines that the report and recommendation is correct. See United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219, 1221 (5th Cir. 1989) (where no objections to a magistrate judge’s report and recommendation are filed, the standard of review is “clearly erroneous, abuse of discretion and contrary to law.”). Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the report and recommendation of the magistrate judge (Docket No. 9) is ADOPTED as the opinion of the District Court. It is further ORDERED that the above-styled petition for the writ of habeas corpus is DISMISSED - AS-MOOT. It is further ORDERED that any and all motions which may be pending in this civil action are hereby DENIED-AS-MOOT. . ____________________________________ ROBERT W.
