ROSS A. WALTERS UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION CONCERNING PLEA OF GUILTY (NO PLEA AGREEMENT)
The United States of America and the defendant, having both filed a written consent to conduct of the plea proceedings by a magistrate judge, appeared before me pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 11 and LCrR 11. The defendant entered a plea of guilty to Count 1 of an Indictment charging him with felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924(a)(2). Defendant will also acknowledge forfeiture of the firearm.. After advising and questioning the defendant under oath concerning each of the subjects addressed in Rule 11(b)(1), I determined that the guilty plea was in its entirety voluntarily, knowingly and intelligently made and did not result from force, threats, or promises. I further determined that there is a factual basis for the guilty plea on each of the essential elements of the offense in question. There is no plea agreement.
I recommend that the plea of guilty be accepted and that the defendant be adjudged guilty and have sentence imposed accordingly. A presentence report has been ordered and sentencing proceedings scheduled.
