TERRY WOOTEN, District Judge

The Petitioner, proceeding pro se, brings this action seeking habeas relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Petitioner is incarcerated at the Federal Medical Center in Butner, North Carolina.

This matter is now before the undersigned for review of the Report and Recommendation ("the Report") filed August 7, 2009 by United States Magistrate Judge Paige Gossett, to whom this case had previously been assigned pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Local Rule 73.02(B)(2) (D.S.C.). In her Report, Magistrate Judge Gossett recommends that the Petitioner's complaint be dismissed. Petitioner has not objected to the Report.

This Court is charged with conducting a de novo review of any portion of the Magistrate Judge's Report to which a specific objection is registered, and may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendations contained in that report. 28 U.S.C. § 636. In the absence of objections to the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, this Court is not required to give any explanation for adopting the recommendation.See Camby v. Davis, 718 F.2d 198, 199 (4th Cir. 1983).

In light of this standard, the Court has carefully reviewed the Report and has concluded that the Report accurately summarizes this case and the applicable law. For the reasons articulated by the Magistrate Judge, it is hereby ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge's Report is ACCEPTED (Doc. # 24); and Respondent's motion to deny habeas petition is GRANTED (Doc. # 15).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
