Pending before the Court are Plaintiff-Respondent Francisco Alvarez-Espinosa's Motion to Vacate, Set Aside, or Correct Sentence Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255's and United States Magistrate Judge Edward C. Voss' Report and Recommendation ("R&R"). Dkt. ##24, 31. The R&R recommends that the Court deny the motion. Dkt. #31 at 5. The Magistrate Judge advised the parties that they had ten days to file objections to the R&R and that failure to file timely objections could be considered a waiver of the right to obtain review of the R&R. Id. at 6 (citing 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); United States v. ReynaTapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003)). The parties did not file objections, which relieves the Court of its obligation to review the R&R. See Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d at 1121; Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985) ("[Section 636(b)(1)] does not . . . require any review at all . . . of any issue that is not the subject of an objection."); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) ("The district judge . . . shall make a de novo determination . . . of any portion of the magistrate judge's disposition to which specific written objection has been made[.]"). The Court will accept the R&R and deny the motion.
